#1 Catherine Herridge reported on the Uighurs held at Gitmo. Around 2009 she observed a demonstration by the Uighurs at Gitmo. As reported in her book:

At the camp, an extraordinary scene unfolded. The Uighurs staged a demonstrationb.

The held up their government-issued art pads like placards. One of the Uighars turned the pages. The protest was inflammatory and clearly aimed at President Obama. They compared the United States to "Double Hetler [sic] and even attacked the commander in chief. One asked in English, "Is Obama a communist or a democrat?" They accused the U.S. government of oppressing them like the Chinese. The accusations really stung. My husband would later comment, "The Uighurs lived in China. Believe me, they probably know a communist when they see one."

Obviously the Uighurs must have have thought there was a distinction between communists and democrats as it was an "either or or" question for them.
