Let's take a poll and just SEE what FR folks think??
Yes/NO is answer enough
If a MORMON runs for president; should his religion make a difference?
If a MUSLIM runs for president; should his religion make a difference?
No. But voting for a Mormon Prez is a distinctive consideration.
If a MUSLIM runs for president; should his religion make a difference?
No. But voting for a Muslim Prez is a distinctive consideration.
Mormons and Muslims both have a right to be on the ballot. Do they have some kind of automatic claim on everybody's vote -- just because of their religion -- as some posters insinuate? (NO!)
Next thing you know some posters will vie for claiming that the Constitution says there's a "quota" for minority-religion candidates needing to have at least a certain % of the voters' vote, or the election will be deemed "unconstitutional," invalidated, and the election results of the people overturned.
I think some of the minority-religion FREEPERS, the way they keep flunking out on Constitutional history, might "amen" the liberals on that one!
