“...that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman (Muslim) who should be slain in Battle was sure to go to Paradise.”
Having just returned from visiting the Mayflower site I am reminded of the Christian teachings that founded our great nation. No where did I hear that Muslim teachings at any time in our history helped shape the backbone of the United States. I am confused by our President's statements? Yes, the pilgrims came seeking religious freedom and Muslims alike share this freedom but our laws and the creation of America was based completely on Christian teachings and the Bible.

Jefferson had it right.
Obama has it wrong.
