But didn't Gadaffi send Obama some sort of correspondence telling him he's the dark savior of their superior Muslim brothers, or something to that affect. It came out in Wikileaks.
Gaddafi was also certifiably fucking insane. From his all-virgin female bodyguard unit to wearing gloves on his visit to Israel (so his hands wouldn't shake hands with Jews) to that infamous tape he sent out to his people shortly after the revolt began. Remember, him indoors in a car while holdign an umbrella?
Yeah, use him as a source to your heart's content.
Not saying Obama gave it any creedence, but it'd be foolish not to think that there are at least some other Muslims who relate to him this way and that he's used this idea for his political advantage, whether he considers himself one or not.
Do they really? Why would they considering he's retained Dubya's national security methods and practices, if not arguably gone even more right-wing (consider his escalation of the drone program) than Dubya.
Fun Fact: Before 9/11, the Muslim-American voted overwhelmingly Republican. Which makes sense, since most leaders of both sides hate the gays and evolution.
