Yes, I do mean her. Why wouldn't you want a person with that kind of courage for president?

She fought against Islamic belief that bans girls from attending school.

You paint with an extremely broad brush.

She's a muslim. Raised by muslims. Her muslim father is extremely proud of her.

I repeat - why wouldn't you want a person with that kind of courage to be president?

I voted yes because we have separation of church and state in this country. No public policy is supposed to be based on religion. If the president keeps church and state separate, then I will vote for that person regardless of what religion he follows. If the president does not keep church and state separate, then I will not vote for that person regardless of what religion he follows. So the specific religion itself is entirely irrelevant.

Yep, all the other 1,599,999,999 Muslims in the world shot her in the head. Hard to believe she survived 1.6 billion gunshots to the head.

Yea, let's ignore that her father is a womens' educational activist and that he's also a Muslim.

You seem to be of the opinion that all Muslims are the Taliban.
