2008: Clemons On The Resignation Of Obama’s Muslim Outreach Coordinator
August 6th, 2008 by Matt
Steve Clemons, aggravated by the Obama campaign’s decision to let their Muslim outreach coordinator resign over “questions about his ‘involvement’ in an Islamic investment fund and various Islamic groups” calls on Obama to “make a statement loudly, clearly, and with passion that he embraces Muslims as much as any other Americans of Christian, Buddhist, Jewish or other religious persuasions.” Clemons is unimpressed by Obama’s treatment of Muslims throughout the campaign, and “saddened” by Obama’s decision to let Mazen Azbahi step down because eight years ago he “served on a board ‘for a few weeks’ that included a Muslim fundamentalist imam from Illinois.”
