It is kinda funny how a video that perpetrates the idea that Obama lied about something itself either lied, or made a huge factual error- that the DNC
is hosting a 2 hour muslim "juma prayer".
Not that that is the only problem with the video.
So lets see- Jefferson invited a muslim from Tunisia for a meal, specifically at the time of his iftar, and he came, and opened his fast (had his
iftar and dinner) at that time. Errr....that pretty much is exactly what an iftar dinner is. The Tunisian envoy literally had his iftar dinner at the
White house. Was a huge sign hung out front saying "HAPPY RAMADAN!"? Probably not, but there was probably nothing like that ever done anyhow. Sure,
maybe nobody else was fasting, but there never was any claim that anybody else was fasting.
As for allegations of Huma Abedin being linked to the Muslim brotherhood, amazing that such tripe is still going on. I mean, a crazy smear campaign
with absolutely no real evidence, put forward by fringe lunatics within the US government, condemned and denied by people within their own party, and
there are still some listening to these people?
So Huma Abedin's father's uncle's brother's cousin's mother-in-law had dinner with a dude who's sister was married to a dude who once attended a
Muslim Brotherhood meeting? Because it is just as stupid as that. Someone from the Muslim brotherhood infiltrated the US Government, but married a
Pro-Israel jewish man, and couldn't even change HIS mind? Suuure...
This is what I say to those people:

Also, Jefferson read the Quran because he wanted to fight the Barbary pirates? How on earth would that work? "Oh, the Quran says that the kryptonite
for these people is the ham sandwich! WE WILL USE SUCH AGAINST THEM!"
No, if you actually check the history, you will see that Thomas Jefferson obtained a Quran because he was investigating references from "Of the Law
and Nature and Nations" because of his doubts about the English constitutional Law that the US had inherited.
Also, you know the very first country to formally recognise the USA?
France? Nope. Germany? Nope. One of those smaller country's that nobody remember's the name of, like Andorra? Nope.
Morocco. Yup. There is your "Muslim impact on the USA".
PS: Al Qaeda "emanated" from the Muslim Brotherhood no more than Al Qaeda "emanated" from the USA.
EDIT:
Since there is discussion here about Thomas Jefferson, I thought I might interject here with a quote from his autobiography, perhaps especially
pertinent to those today who are of the mindset "Islam is not a religion, so it shouldn't be protected under the mantle of Freedom of Religion,
because I want to be able to make laws against it!"
(in reference to the Virginia Act for Religious Freedom)
Where the preamble declares, that coercion is a departure from the plan of the holy author of our religion, an amendment was proposed by inserting
"Jesus Christ," so that it would read "A departure from the plan of Jesus Christ, the holy author of our religion;" the insertion was rejected by the
great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and
Mohammedan, the Hindoo and Infidel of every denomination.
