America is a western democracy, Islamist don't separate their religion and politics. So, Ben Carson has a very valid point. Even here in Nigeria, Islamist are not prepared to live under a non moslem president.

Islam is the largest growing religion in the world. By 2060, Islam will be the largest religion in the world (PEW research). That means we will have an increase in American Muslims as well, which in turn means non-Muslim Americans will regularly interact with American Muslims. That means your kids and grandkids will have doctors, lawyes, engineers, etc. that are American Muslims. Do you really want to continue the ignorance?

Fastest growing by birth and immigration,
Larger population does not in anyway relate to prosperity,
in fact most group who engage in unmitigated population
explosion usually have a large percentage of them ending up
in the ghettos.
You and I know that very very few ghetto children end up as doctors
and lawyers , instead gangsterism is their order of the day.

You should aspire to become the most educated not the largest.
Over-population breeds poverty.

I fear a bush overtake of Carson. But I am afraid Truman would clinch the primaries. He is vocal, outgoing, loud, proud, self imposing and almost violent in his utterances. He looks the type that will play dirty politics if he has the opportunity. Carson on the other hand does not look forceful enough, though he is coming up gradually. If I am to choose who lifts GOP's banner at the general election, I will go for Ben Carson. He is the next hope and next repairer of the damaged american Godly heritage.

Carson , the christian fanatic won't win the primary,
he is just there for contest sake.
America don't need a fanatic.

cool

Whatever the people decides. But I doubt if there's anyway the Americans will try the security of their cherished country into a Muslim man's hand. Though, America and the British has people of diverse background, but I think there's a limit to how much you can play around with the security of your nation.

All the same, there's possibility of a Muslim becoming a President in America. But he or she will have to be a very dedicated personality to hold such an office.

When the likes of buhari and OBJ are your presidents, then sorry if i don't find the Nigerian presidentship enticing.
You can see why the country is one big giant hell-hole.

I really hate it when you Muslims boast about how Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. Muslims are given a free hand to practice their religion in the western world, even to the point of building imposing mosques. There is no integration of Christianity into government policies in those countries. People are even free to denounce Christianity and accept Islam, which is often celebrated on the pages of newspapers and on social media.

In the Middle East however, the situation is exactly the opposite. Islam has been integrated into the government of those nations, making it very difficult to practice another religion. Renouncing of Islam has to be done in secret otherwise it will be met with death, which is the sentence for apostasy. People even go ahead to kill their siblings or children who renounce Islam, calling it honour killing. Are you aware that many Muslims are daily being converted to Christianity in Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia etc, but they can't open up on their conversion for the sake of their lives.

Why is there no freedom of choice in Islam? Why can't people be allowed to choose which lifestyle or religion they desire in the Muslim world?
Until the Muslim world adopts democratic governance in their Nations, they should stop celebrating any advantage they gain from democracy in the Western (mostly Christian) Nations.

You don't know what your talking about,
Go and read history of America, America was built on religion(Christianity) by the founding fathers

The founding fathers of America were immigrant who were not allowed to practice their religion (Christianity)in their respective countries, the original habitants of America of today were the red Indians


Things only change as time pass by which has brought about their developments

Also note this
America constitution was written on christian values by the founding fathers

Muslim will never and can never rule America
Just like the reverse in Saudi Arabia

Stop quoting history when you don't know,
America founding fathers left their homes for economic not
religious reasons, if you are conversant with history you will
know that most of the founding fathers were deists not Christians
as you claim.

None of the candidates campaigning are even Muslims so who is he throwing the jab at? Ben Carson just officially lost the presidential race before it even start. He is indirectly mocking the American constitution and democracy as a whole. He wouldn't have even dream of being a Presidential candidate if Blacks were still not allowed to run for any post, If Apartheid still exist. But today the US has a black man as their president. I am afraid Ben Carson may also lose respect as a world renowned neurosurgeon. Just check out the BBC page and see how he is being criticized for the statement by fellow Americans. Racists Americans would also take advantage of this to spread propagandas of how "Hateful" Ben Carson is giving more reasons why you should vote for only whites. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10153110441612217&id=228735667216&refid=17

i hope you understand what he meant by "values and principles" that define america....for the most part of it, it equality and freedom....most muslims especialy arabs dont believe in equality, esoecually of sexes and are also known not to guarantee freedom, check most of tharab states....hes not against muslims, as long as the principles can be upheld.

It was actually both.
They were mainly european protestants fleeing catholic persecutions in europe at first. Then after some time, europeans began to migrate there for economic reasons.
The common denominator is that there were mostly practicing christians.

"Values and principles" exactly what Nnamdi Kanu of Radio Biafra has been harping on about. If you live together in a country with peoples of opposite "Values and principles" to yours as obtains in Nigeria's of today, then there is no way such a country will proper nor have peace. For us Biafrans to achieve our target goals in life, we must fight hard to separate from Nigeria where these northerners and south westerners are clogging the wheels of our progress. We do not have anything in common with them.

I think you need to get it straight, SS is not Biafra. And should we decide to split as a country which is most unlikely, it is going to be a north, SW, SE, and SS split. The truth is the SE is the most disadvantaged of the pair.
So tell Mr KANU to have a plan in place for the survival and sustainance of the SE before blowing his trumpet of secession.

Bush won't rise despite his huge cash haul and Trump will eventually lose steam. Carson might win the first primary in Iowa because of his strength with Christian Conservatives.
In my opinion the person to watch is that Fiorina lady, She had a strong debate performance and the media seem to be pushing her narrative. I'm rooting sentimentally for Carson too though, his story inspired me back then in my teen years.

If it's the same Presidential debate I watched on CNN? Then lady fiorina stand no chance. That Donald guy is too intimidating both in size and cash, he will most likely root out all the other candidates but he doesn't sound intelligent to me. As for Ben Carson he can't win now, I hope jeb bush wins
