I know there is a similar poll here but I didnt like the silly twist about adding "if he came out the day before the election" in there

my question is, if you felt the person was qualified by your standards to be president and he was a Muslim would you vote for him, and if not why?

my answer is OF COURSE YES, because if I thought he was qualified his religion doesn't matter.

Seriously though Muslims want to kill us.....There Koran says so. We are infidels. Be a Muslim or be dead. When are you Libs going to get that in your mind? The only reason they don't do it now is because there are not enough of them in this country...Just remember one thing they are the fastest growing religion on the world.

I would say it is more bigoted to ignore the facts. What would a country be like under Muslim leadership? Just examine any of the select Nations of the world under Muslim leadership right now! Leaders of the Free World?

The same Muslim leaders that Obama bows to.
 
Oh hell no. Do you know anything about koranimals? Freedom and sharia do not and never can coexist.
 
I am not sure. Given the reaction we have seen to Obama who isn't even an actual muslim. If a muslim was actually elected as president, half the country is going to go absolutely bonkers and I wouldn't want to have to listen to them or deal with them in their anxiety.

On a more rational level, any president who is muslim would likely be so westernized that the specific religion would not matter.

Funny, you didn't twist your knickers when I compared all religions to fish and Islam to the Puffer Fish used to create the potentially lethal Japanese delicacy, fugu.

Nor did I hear any tripe from you when the essay i quoted compared Islamist groups (and individuals, for that matter) to a lethal, communicable disease.



from, "Al Qaeda's Fantasy Ideology" by Lee Harris

I use comparisons to animals and people and things all the time. You can't honestly use that to gauge how I feel about Muslims.

On that subject I am on record as supporting full and equal rights for all Muslims in America except for being able to become POTUS without first erecting safeguards to prevent Political Islam from making inroads in our country and government which could weaken our nation and current form of govt.

You are mistaken about me, but I care little about what you, personally, think, for your thinking process leaves much to be desired.

I don't believe ALL Muslims want to kill us, but I believe the Koran can 'legitimately' beinterpretted to instruct ALL Muslims to do everything, including kill, to conquer the world and convert, enslave or kill all infidels.

I agree with the rest of your post, wholeheartedly.

That's the point of the thread...Muslim leadership. See what I mean about his thought processes, everyone?

LOL
 
Yes. I could care less about a leaders religion.

I voted, "No", because I believe that Muslim values and American values are incompatible. As a Conservative, I believe in a Moral Government, and I believe Culture is the identity of a Nation, and that the President should reflect that Culture, and the idea's of that Nation. Muslim's have their religious beliefs, and they are entitled to them; however, America is the place where Slavery was abolished, where Women were given the right to Vote and right to Educate and Work, where religious liberty is our first principle. These idea's are incompatible to the Islamic Faith and Culture and to say a potential President could ignore his religious faith is rather disingenuous.

ok, how about this?

To clarify my vote:

I said no because at this time, with all the conflict in the middle east, it could impair his judgement of making the better choices for this nation. food for thought, not saying i'm right or wrong.

I have to agree with you....and it has nothing to do with racism or anything to do with non radical Muslims......but I would wonder....is he or she hiding something that we have no idea about, could he she be a homegrown terrorist????....the questions of wondering would make me not vote for him/her...I feel this way because of all the unsettling things going on......

However if in years to come when their is peace in the Middle East then I have no doubt my feelings about this would change.

I voted no because I just couldn't bear the thought of seeing the First Lady in a burka. I just have trust issues when it comes to people that I can't actually see. :shrug: :D

A Perfect example of how Muslim Values and American Values are incompatible. Modern Day America respects the Woman and as much as any Nation on Earth, treats Her as an Equal, and in some cases.... *SUPERIOR* (I believe the Greatest Job in America is raising children and almost everyone I know gives that credit to Mom.)

I like mashed potatoes, and I'd rather handle a live cobra than answer this question. :mrgreen:


Okay... TBH my real answer is "probably not". It would depend somewhat on what I thought of whoever he was running against.


It would worry me. I know not all Muslims are radicalized... but a good many are. I know not all Muslims hate Israel... but lots do. I know not all Muslims want to place the world under Sharia.... but many do.

It's a worry that quite frankly I could do without, if the other guy seemed just as good a choice and wasn't Muslim.


I'm sorry if that sounds prejudiced, but I'm being honest here. The past 20 years just doesn't inspire confidence in this...

HUGE difference between you and idiot bigots
the door is open for you, its possible though unlikely and the bolded above is what makes it different, there are people that deny that fact and deem ALL musilms evil.

But whats funny is its also a fact that not all Christian, Catholics etc want to have the laws and rule of this country follow their religion but a good many of them do.

and people ignore that fact and for some reason only focus on muslims and deem them ALL evil.

you clearly didnt do that so your good, the Cobra struck but only got air :D
 
Really don't wanna touch that Equal Rights for Women thing, eh?
