of islam that hates jews, will kill homosexuals, will kill muslims, do not advocate the beliefs and value system that made america into the country it is today. it may have been an inconvenient truth but it is a truth. you re talking about an extremist radical strain, not the strain that millions of american muslims practice here in this country. there are more american-muslims than episcopalians. you re talking about a radical strand. dr. carson was asked his opinion. his opinion was the timing, at this point, he would not vote for a muslim in the white house. this is why he s not a politician. this is why he s not trying to be politically correct. this is america. it s a place of freedom of speech. and freedom of religion. you express what you believe and how you feel. and freedom of religion.
