President Obama issued a statement Sunday evening extending best wishes to Muslims in the U.S. and around the world at the start of Islam's holy month of Ramadan.
"For many, this month is an opportunity to focus on reflection and spiritual growth, forgiveness, patience and resilience, compassion for those less fortunate, and unity across communities," he said in the written statement.
"Here in the United States, we are blessed with Muslim communities as diverse as our nation itself. There are those whose heritage can be traced back to the very beginning of our nation, as well as those who have only just arrived," he said, noting that their numbers include "doctors, lawyers, artists, teachers, scientists, community organizers, public servants, and military members."
Then, in pointed contrast to Donald Trump's call to temporarily bar Muslims entering the United States, the president stated: "I stand firmly with Muslim American communities in rejection of the voices that seek to divide us or limit our religious freedoms or civil rights."
"We will continue to welcome immigrants and refugees into our nation, including those who are Muslim," he added....

He sure does !
Notice how he didn't say THEIR holy month, but THE holy month.
Cue the ELO song: “I Can’t Get Trump Out of My Head!, no I can’t get him out of my head, “
Hate, loathe, despise him.
FUBO!!!!
He stands with ISIS to.
There are 4 dead Israelis because of these Muslim jihadists I bet Obama won’t be issuing a statement on that he’s too busy celebrating
This is a Christain Nation. We don’t care about ramadan one twit.
when the *** did America start giving a *** about Muslims and their holidays?
The only muslims who can trace their heritage back to the beginning of this nation are the ones whose pirate ancestors caused us to create the US Marine Corps.
Now that you know he isn't interested in America, only to tear it down, ruin it, destroyed it...
Now that you don't have jobs to go to, schools for your kids to go to, money to spend like a regular person...
Vote for Hillary and you'll get the same thing, how do we know she hasn't converted to Muslim, she sure loves them, does everything she can for them, even has one as her ‘lover’....maybe that's why her and Barky are so close now, he even congratulated her on her win last night, only problem with that is she still hasn't won anything, their convention hasn't voted either...her super delegates don't have to honor her...they can vote any way they want to...
How's life working out for all you people???
There are those whose heritage can be traced back to the very beginning of our nation,

Blatant lie. There were no muslims here.
The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam
John Qunicy Adams on Islam
In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.
Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).
In what way are muslim communities (ignoring black muzzies) in the US a blessing?
Always great to hear from our glorious leader, Obama Bin Golfin.
Funny, I don’t recall his Easter, Passover or D-Day messages.
Screw Obama, screw Ramadan and screw Islam.
Unholy Ramadan
Count that as a blessing.
