Verdict: False
The quote misrepresents what Obama said in the book.
There is no evidence that Obama ever said or wrote the statement attributed to him in the Facebook post.
Fact Check:
The conspiracy theory that Obama secretly practices Islam dates back over a decade and has been debunkednumeroustimes.
The viral image appears to play on that conspiracy theory, claiming Obama wrote on page 261 of his 2006 book “The Audacity of Hope” that “if the political winds should shift, I will side with the muslims.”
But this is inaccurate.
The quote does not appear on page 261 or any other page of the book. The Daily Caller News Fou
