First let's recall:
"The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam."
-Barack Obama, Address to the United Nations
Ok. Now John Kerry's version of history:
France "gave birth to Democracy herself."
Um.
No.
Ancient Greece for the idea and the United States of America for its implementation.
End of discussion.
Obama is no stranger of making ahistorical statements too. For example "France is America's oldest ally..."
Technically, I'd say no. No because they have not consistently been allies. Britain is far more consistent and Canada still more.
But the President is not one to let history and facts get in the way of a narrative.
