Obama: We’re One of the Largest Muslim Nations

by Stephan Tawney on June 3, 2009

So little time, so much fail.

Now, the flip side is I think that the United States and the West generally, we have to educate ourselves more effectively on Islam. And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslims Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. And so there’s got to be a better dialogue and a better understanding between the two peoples.

Apparently this is the same math he uses to conclude that he’s saved 150,000 jobs while the nation is hemmoraging them by the month. Either that or the math used by Biden to determine that “jobs” has three letters.

The largest estimates from the Muslim community would put the Muslim population of the United States at about 8 million. By comparison, Indonesia has 207 million Muslims; Pakistan has 167 million; India has 156 million Muslims; and Bangladesh has 132 million Muslims. Where is the United States? In the top 40. Does that now count as “one of the largest”?
