The Dems picked Walz for their VP candidate due to his popularity with Muslim voters, who vote 75% Democrat.

Due to Biden's perceived support for Israel, Muslim voters were threatening to withhold their votes in November.

They would not vote Republican. They would not vote at all.

Yesterday, Walz came through in spades for Muslims and the Dem party, when he promised Muslims an equal role in the Harris administration.

"Muslims will be engaged in this administration and serve side by side"

This is the first time in history, a promise to serve "side by side" has been made to any group. Not blacks, females, hispanics, Christians, Jews, or any other group.

The Walz/Harris promise solidly secures Michigan, NJ, Oregon and Washington for the Dems, and ensures the growing Muslim American population substantially more political power in the US.


Amend the Constitution and put all religion under free speech, instead of its special place as far as I'm concerned. Get it out of government in all cases.

I pretty much ignore the polls until October. Well it's October and here's the CNN poll from October 3rd. It has the popular vote in a virtual tie and has Trump winning the Electoral College by 70%. This poll was taken mostly before the hurricane and before we found out that Harris Biden squandered most of the money that was in FEMA on supporting illegal immigrants and according to their own people has already run out of money. As this unfolds it's going to have a devastating effect on knucklehead tampon Tim and chucklehead Heels Up Harris in the election. If CNN has Trump winning at 70%, you know it has to be closer to 80% in reality.



It’s funny how much EB loves Nate Silver now. What happened to this guy?

Too many votes for the Dems to ignore.

They hit the motherlode with Walz: "Muslims will be engaged in this administration and serve side by side"

Expect Harris to bring in a million or more over the next few years. This is going to be big.

So what. I don't care about fear mongering freedom of religion. Be against the Constitution as written if you don't love it.

Religion can be anything anyone wants it to be. THAT'S THE WAY IT'S DESIGNED.

I already said it should all be under free speech.

Cool.
The Muslim American population should get more political power as their numbers grow
3rd largest religion in the USA
That's how democracy works

I think it's important that people of all major religions participate in governing
Of course I exclude scientology

Oklahoma requiring Bibles in every school. But that's only the half of it.


If the school has a library it would be foolish not to have a bible for those who are interested.

That I would not agree with, but I don't have a problem if every library is required to have one. BTW, I would be fine if it was located in the fiction section of the library.

Libraries should carry all books, even the ones the MAGA types want to ban. That's the whole purpose of a library.
