"I would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation. I
absolutely would not agree with that..................I do not believe
Sharia is consistent with the Constitution of this country." --Ben
Carson
Of course, Democrat chairman Debbie Wasserman Schultz chimed in: "It's hard to
understand what's so difficult about supporting an American citizen's
right to run for president.. But unsurprisingly, this left Republicans
scratching their heads. Of course a Muslim, or any other American
citizen, can run for president, end of story."
WSF NOTE: Carson never said
a Muslim couldn't run, in fact there are two Muslims in Congress right
now (both Democrats). Carson just said he would not advocate it. What
Carson said was clear. What the media is reporting is purposely
obfuscated.
Of course, the media contacted all the candidates to see if there was someone else they could drag into the fray. None of them complied or met their standard of purposed obfuscation.
