On Monday, September 21, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation's largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, will hold a news conference at its Capitol Hill headquarters to call on Republican candidate Ben Carson to withdraw from the presidential race for saying today that Islam is "inconsistent" with the Constitution and that a Muslim should not be elected president.
*snip*
"Mr. Carson clearly does not understand or care about the Constitution, which clearly states that 'no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office,'" said CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad. "We call on our nation's political leaders across the political spectrum - to repudiate these unconstitutional and un-American statements and for Mr. Carson to withdraw from the presidential race."
He said this incident demonstrates why the Constitution is needed to protect Americans of all faiths.
Awad noted that in 2011, Herman Cain said he would not appoint a Muslim to his cabinet or as a federal judge if elected president.

Exactly right.
Islam: a political ideology with a component of religion.
Claiming Islam will rule the entire world, not caring how long it takes.
I think CAIR super-understands our Constitution and cares not a whit.
Islam is to rule the world, and sharia will be the law.

The Dr. is not even my favorite but damn, I will not cower to PC any more.
F Em.
This is the line in the dirt.
You have been cowering to PC up until just now?
probably
TOO DAMN BAD for CAIR.
Truth is sometimes UNPLEASANT to hear, but TRUTH is TRUTH.
Dr. CARSON need NOT DROP OUT over his ERUDITE COMMENT about the PROSPECT of a MUSLIM POTUS and STUPID CAIR’S DEMAND JUST PROVED Dr. Carson’s assertion CORRECT.
DO not do that Ben.
I think this statement, by the soft spoken yet brilliant Dr. Carson is a twofer...
1. He builds off Mr. Trumps non-comment of last week...and
2 . He starts to prove he can take the (surgical) gloves off and throw punches.
Nicely done. I think Trump, Cruz and Carson at least are on the same page...and may take turns reading out loud from it. The Donald seems to like/approve of/ appreciate Ben & Ted.
Carson will play a major part in our future.
Is a black man supposed to prove his tolerance by endorsing a religion that practices slavery?
A MUSLIM FOR PRESIDENT? SHOULD BEN CARSON ENDORSE SHARIA SLAVERY IN ISLAMIC LAW?
We have already hat a Muslim as president, and see how that worked out?
dear USA,
I agree that ‘islam’ i SNOT the law of my nation, and has no business being allowed to fester within.
