Jindal: I’d Support Muslim Candidate Who Swears On Bible
[su_publirb]
Bobby Jindal would ask a Muslim to swear an oath, as long as that oath were sword on an Old or New Testament, but not one sworn on the book the Muslim actually uses to worship.
Jindal says in a statement today that he’ll back a Muslim candidate that 1) respects America’s Judeo-Christian values, and 2) would swear on the Bible.
Here’s the full statement:
This is a dumb game that the press is playing. It is an absurd hypothetical question. But let’s indulge the media for a moment and play their gotcha game.
If you can find me a Muslim candidate who is a Republican, who will fight hard to protect religious liberty, who will respect the Judeo-Christian heritage of America, who will be committed to destroying ISIS and radical Islam, who will condemn cultures that treat women as second class citizens and who will place their hand on the Bible and swear to uphold the Constitution, then yes, I will be happy to consider voting for him or her.
If you can’t, I’ll settle for voting for a Christian Governor from Louisiana.
