At a time when the US is grappling with the issue of Muslims, son of Egyptian Muslim immigrants Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is all set to run for the post of Governor of Michigan state. Having served as the executive director of the Detroit Health Department, he shifted to politics. Despite the discrimination against Muslims in the United States, his election manager thinks he has a fairly strong chance of winning. “The electorate [in Michigan] doesn’t know what it wants, but it wants something different,” says El-Sayed’s manager, Max Gloss. div.TT_wrapper { <p> background-color: #EFEFEF; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; /* float: left; width: 30%; margin-right: 1em; */ border: 0; } <p>div.TT_wrapper div.TT_tweet_link_wrapper a { font: normal 700 medium "Helvetica Neue",sans-serif; font-size: 0.8rem; line-height: 1.5em; text-transform: uppercase; } <p>div.TT_wrapper div.TT_text a:hover, div.TT_wrapper div.TT_footer a:hover { text-shadow: none; color: #E64946; } <p>div.TT_wrapper div.TT_tweet_link_wrapper a { color: #E64946; } <p>.TT_wrapper a.TT_tweet_link img { display: none; }
Still, the issue of El-Sayed’s religion is prominent on his mind. After his stump speech at Adrian, Michigan, El-Sayed was asked whether he was planning to introduce the sharia law to the US if he would succeed in becoming the first Muslim governor of the US. Replying that he would obviously not, he also added that he strictly believed in the separation of Church and State, indicating that he had no interest in mixing his religion with his political work.
“If I am going to want to be able to put my face on the ground 34 times a day like I do because I’m Muslim, I want to make sure no one can take that right away from me. And I will not take that right away from anyone else,” he said, adding that he had every right to practice whatever religion he wanted in his home because that is the freedom for which the US Constitution stands for. He also insisted that it is the separation of Church and State that allowed people to have the freedom to practice whatever religion they wanted to.
As to how he will be received as the first Muslim governor in American history, he pointed out at the election of John F. Kennedy’s as president – which was a remarkable point in American history because he was the first Catholic to become president – that too in a country that has had a troubled history with Catholics.
If elected, El-Sayed promises to increase the minimum wage to $15 and to legalize marijuana, suggesting a very bold and modern mentality. He has also refused to accept any contributions from large corporations, indicating that he would prefer to remain free from the control of any vested interests.
A new America hating muslim fag?
Islam is Not and never has been since it’s abortion, compatible with ANY OTHER SOCIETY!!
See History.
“New obama “!- because the other one worked out so well...
[indicating that he had no interest in mixing his religion with his political work]
Except now.
And so it goes. Little by little m*slims make inroads. First, in congress, then the White House, then a governorship. What’s worse is the non-muslims who pave the way for the muzzification of this country.
He needs to ask Michiganders outside of Dearbornistan to find out what the electorate wants.
Chances are he would find out that they are tired of people like him, and I am not speaking of religion.
Michigan went for Trump for some really good reasons.
” Despite the discrimination against Muslims in the United States”
Just saw that. Angry.
Should be “despite the murder of innocent Americans by m*slims in the Unite States”
so they plan to “guilt” Americans into voting for this moslem...
hes “the new Obama” alright...
Great, another guy I’ll never vote for should he seek higher office.
He’ll have Dearbornistan sewed up, that’s for certain.
A state that broke the mold and voted for Trump last year is not going to elect this guy next year. Not happening.
Hah......let's see what he does IF and when he gets himself a bit of political power.
REMEMBER THE DUPLICITOUS MUSLIM DOCTRINE OF TAQIYYA..."ITS OKAY TO LIE TO CHRISTIANS" (US INFIDELS)
The Muslim blood lust is for Christians------to do harm to Christians.
For those with a discerning eye, taqiyya is all around us. (a) Muslim refugees have pretended to convert to Christianity; (2) an Islamic gunman gained entrance inside a church by feigning interest in Christian prayers.
Examples abound on a daily basis.
To get close enough to a Christian pastor to assassinate him, a group of Muslims including three smiling, sweet, innocent-looking Muslim women feigned interest in Christianity, attended his church for over a year....their act included participating in baptism ceremonies.
Said the pastor: "These Muslim people had infiltrated our church and collected information about me, my family and the church, and were preparing an attack against us. Two of them attended our church for over a year. They acted like family" .... as they plotted savage killings of the pastor, his family, and his congregants.
If Abdul were deported, would he able to run his campaign from his home country ?
His ears are too small.
And New Falujah.
Trump carried Michigan. I don’t think it’s a given anymore that Michigan is a knee-jerk Rat party state.
Ask him if he renounces the 9/11 attacks. His answer should be enough for most Michiganders to vote against him.
He even looks like a terrorist. Excellent.
