Carson: Muslims Can Be President Only By ‘Reject[ing Muslim] Tenets’
[su_gootxttop]
Imagine saying we could have a Jewish president who rejects the tenets of Judaism. Or a Christian president who rejects Christ. That’s the wingnut territory we’re in here.
“If someone has a Muslim background and they’re willing to reject those tenets and to accept the way of life that we have and clearly will swear to place our Constitution above their religion, then, of course. They will be considered infidels and heretics, but at least I would then be quite willing to support them…”
The retired neurosurgeon who has seen his poll numbers rise in recent weeks added, “I don’t care what religion or faith someone belongs to if they’re willing to subjugate that to the American way and to our Constitution, then I have no problem with it.”
