We, the undersigned, call on President Obama to announce his opposition to the implementation of Shariah Islamic law in any of our corridors of government, be it local, state, or federal.

We ask this at this moment in history when there are clamors arising from certain influential members of the Islamic community here in America and abroad suggesting that the implementation of Shariah law in America is necessary for the exercise of Islamic religious freedom.  As is known, Shariah not only is harmful to those who must abide by it, but also is contrary to the evolved wisdom and values of Western Civilization and the character of our country since its founding. 

The implementation of Shariah will affect all of American citizens and deny them their rights to live under their Constitution, our American civic heritage. We ask that the President, who has sworn to uphold the U.S. Constitution, affirm his loyalty to that Constitution and his right to hold office based on the Constitution, by publicly proclaiming, without hesitation or confusion, his stance against any form of the imposition of Shariah law in America, no matter how small or insignificant and against even its voluntary acceptance by those in the Islamic community.
