Obama and Islam

Obama marks Ramadan
In a statement, President Obama commemorated the Muslim holiday of Ramadan � calling it a time to "cherish family, friends, and neighbors, and to help those in need."
"On behalf of the American people, Michelle and I extend our warmest wishes to Muslim Americans and Muslims around the world at the start of Ramadan," Obama said.
Obama also took the opportunity to tie in the struggles of people across the Muslim world engaged in ongoing fighting related to the Arab spring uprisings that began in 2011.
"This year, Ramadan holds special meaning for those citizens in the Middle East and North Africa who are courageously achieving democracy and self-determination and for those who are still struggling to achieve their universal rights. The United States continues to stand with those who seek the chance to decide their own destiny, to live free from fear and violence, and to practice their faith freely. Here in the United States, Ramadan reminds us that Islam is part of the fabric of our Nation, and that � from public service to business, from healthcare and science to the arts � Muslim Americans help strengthen our country and enrich our lives," Obama said.
Emphasis mine -- doesn't he realize that those coming into power are all members of the radical
Muslim Brotherhood? These governments are about as far from democratic as can be. If it is a democracy, where is their Declaration of Independence? Where are their Patriots? Where is their Constitution? What is the structure of their new Government? How are their Citizens represented?
