Democracy has an effective role in this issue. By more and more Islamic centers being established in the United States, it becomes easier to spread Islam.
Islam is an international religion. This means everyone can beleive in it. Islam has many of beatuyful adjectives in every thing of our lives. The USA gaive all people freedom to choise religion.
Most Muslims in the US are immigrants from South Asia, mainly from India and Pakistan. So immigration is the biggest reason why the number of American Muslims is going up. By using the word "spread" you may be thinking about people converting to Islam. This is most common in large urban areas and in prisons. About as big as the South Asian Muslim-American population is the African-American population, many of whom were born into Muslim families in the US and others who convert. For some black Americans, Islam has been an avenue for self-assertion and a way to distance themselves from a "white Protestant America" that has discriminated against them, they feel has not served them and that they do not identify with.
I think that increasing the number of Muslims in America, or in other words, the rapid spread of Islam in America, is due to two reasons I: the simplicity of Islam and its call for peace Second: that the American people, the people polite, and has a good mind and good heart
I believe because people are searching for meaning in their lives.
