From Winds Of Jihad:
Mr. Obama, “Islam had no influence on the origins and development of the United States”

About time somebody sets the record straight:
The Washington Times sets the record straight on Obama’s Ramadan message. “EDITORIAL: Obama’s Islamic America: What country is he talking about?,” from The Washington Times, August 12, thanks to JW:
[...] That Islam has had a major role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings may come as a surprise to Muslim women. Young Afghan girls who are having acid thrown in their faces on the way to school might want to offer their perspectives. That Islam is “known” for diversity and racial equality is also a bit of a reach. This certainly does not refer to religious diversity, which is nonexistent in many Muslim-majority states. This is a plaudit better reserved for a speech at the opening of a synagogue in Mecca.Most puzzling is the president’s claim that “Islam has always been part of America.” Islam had no influence on the origins and development of the United States. It contributed nothing to early American political culture, art, literature, music or any other aspect of the early nation.
