Meet 'Next Soetoro' Groomed to Make Political History
2017-07-02
[WND] The Democratic Party may have found its next Barack Obama.

His name is Dr. Abdul el-Sayed, he’s a 32-year-old medical doctor and he recently launched his campaign for governor of Michigan, the election for which is in November 2018. If he wins he would be America’s first Muslim governor.

He speaks articulately, without an accent, inserts humor into his speeches at seemingly just the right moments, and he has the full backing of America’s powerful Muslim Brotherhood-linked network of Islamic organizations.

In an interview with Al Jazeera, El-Sayed said Michigan voters are having "buyer’s remorse," and that President Trump’s decisions "are at odds with deeply held American values, and distractions from real issues."

Sayed served as the executive director of the Detroit Health Department and Health Officer for the City of Detroit, appointed by Mayor Mike Duggan. At 30 years old, he was at the time of his appointment in 2015 the youngest health director in a major U.S. city.

According to El-Sayed, his decision to run for governor was influenced by concerns over state leadership following the lead-tainted water crisis in Flint, as well as policies being implemented in Washington, D.C., under President Trump.

Dick Manasseri, spokesman for Secure Michigan, a group that educates Michiganders about the threat of Shariah law, predicts that Sayed will at least win the Democratic nomination for governor.

America is headed down a suicidal path ‐ but it’s a subtle invasion. Get all the details in the brand-new book "Stealth Invasion: Muslim Conquest Through Immigration and Resettlement Jihad," available now at the WND Superstore.

"It is the exact same thing as Barack Obama in Chicago in the early 2000s," said Manasseri. "He’s young, attractive, he does not give out a lot of information, he speaks in platitudes about celebrating inclusiveness and diversity."

Sayed is known as a warrior for environmental justice. He talks about "standing up to corporate polluters," and how, in his family, he was taught that having "love and compassion" for the vulnerable are "more important than where you’re from."

"How could any good progressive Democrat vote against that in good conscience?" asks Manasseri.

Sayed is highly educated, a Rhodes scholar who attended Oxford University in 2009 and became a practicing epidemiologist.

#2  for all the kumbayah about diversity and opportunity, the Dems there don't seem to be able to tear themselves away from white people for Governor.

White Dems are just as tribal as every other Democratic ethnic group. In time, as they are squeezed out of the Democratic party, we'll see them migrate towards the GOP. Unfortunately, they'll bring their socialistic views with them.

#1  ....Hmmm. Might could happen. Huge Muslim voting bloc in SE Michigan, and the Dems are desperate to bring MI back into the fold after the embarrassment of losing them in 2016. They'll work hard to make this happen IF he gets the support of the Party leadership - for all the kumbayah about diversity and opportunity, the Dems there don't seem to be able to tear themselves away from white people for Governor. There's also an under-appreciated but true fact that the rest of the state that isn't Dearborn/Detroit/Ann Arbor/Flint loathes those people and the fact that they pretty much dictate to the surprisingly rural everybody else. Stay tuned...
