CNN's W. Kamau Bell: Islam Part of America’s Founding - Breitbart:

The issue that irritates the most is historical revisionism.  This stems from our experience with the Communists and the Fascists who decided that the historical facts should be adjusted to suit their political narrative.

We all work at knowing and understanding history, we all have memory and when faced with the revised picture, revised to suit today's view, we only end up with confusion for some and division for others.  In the days of bound books the alternate scenario of the revisionist was hard to push to the public, perhaps even there was never the thought to revise history other then make corrections as new facts were discovered. but now things are different, history has to fit the political ideology so with a few key taps or a tv broadcast the alternate view is instantly out there for all to see.  The attempt to blend Islam into the founding of America is a classic example.  The fact that it is pushed by CNN not as anything other the political or cultural pandering is not surprising.  Another reason to turn off CNN.
