Appearing on Meet the Press, retired neurosurgeon and GOP presidential
candidate Ben Carson said that the faith of a potential president of the
U.S. matters and that he couldn’t see having a Muslim president.

Referring to GOP front runner Donald Trump’s town hall confrontation
with an anti-Muslim bigot, host Chuck Todd asked Carson, “Should a
president’s faith matter?”

“I guess it depends on what that faith is,” Carson replied. “If it is
inconsistent with the values and principles of America, then of course
it should matter.”

“Do you believe that Islam is consistent with the Constitution?” Todd
pressed.

“No, I do not,” Carson quickly replied. “I would not advocate that we
put a Muslim in charge of this nation. I absolutely would not.”

Harry defending religion in the white house. Lord you can take me now.
I have seen it all.

Actually, I am not defending religion...I am defending Article VI. I
don't give a damn whether the POTUS is "religious" or not, just so he or
she doesn't use "religion" to decide or propose policy.
