Not a bad choice if that Muslim agrees with my political views. If they don't, I wouldn't consider it, and you have nothing to worry your inbred little head about.

Being a resident and disliking the views of a governor of the opposite political party doesn't equate fear. Especially not this kind of fear

Someone who goes around and post about various elections in states they don't even reside in or know much about should know about fear. Especially when they mostly post nonsense.

The salient difference is that Muslims are a miniscule minority and Christian conservatives almost half the country, although declining little by little.
There is an even bigger difference - Muslims, what you call a miniscule minority, are more powerful in changing the government than Christians ever were. The purging of anti-Muslim language from training manuals removing so-called "offensive" language that they deem to be anti-Muslim was done on insistence of Muslims and by agreement between Muslim leaders and our own government.

That, there, is power. Christians aren't even allowed to keep the word "God" visible, and are required to cover over their crosses or remove them.

Even if this completely true--which seems at least questionable given the source--how does it affect my life in any way?

What Christians, where, doing what? I see Christian paraphernalia when I go to certain people's cubicles at the state Human Services department, so I suspect you are recycling RW urban mythology. Or that you don't understand why a huge Ten Commandments monument, for instance, doesn't belong in a courthouse.

When Muslims stop committing terrorist acts around the world and join us in the 21st century then I may vote for a Muslim. Until then, hell no

Ineffective attempt to deflect. People's cubicles? What is that.

You ignore all that has been in the news. But that's OT. I was responding to your post in which
you said that Muslims are a miniscule minority and Christian conservatives almost half the country.

The power Muslims wield with our gov't is astounding. But, then, what else would we expect with the Brotherhood in high places.
