After reading the rules of Islam, I have to agree with Dr. Carson. The Quran is in direct conflict with the Constitution. The statement that really pulls my chain is – if a non-Muslim signs a contract with a Muslim and if during the contract it is an advantage for the Muslim not to honor the contract. In their book, it states that they can declare the contract null and void with no repercussion.
It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated; to impose its law on all nations and to extend its power to the entire planet.” — Hasan al-Banna’, Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, 1928.

Muslim group slams Carson s for repudiation.
By KEVIN FREKING, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The nation’s largest Muslim advocacy group says lawmakers from across the political spectrum should repudiate Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson’s comments that the Islamic faith is inconsistent with the Constitution and that he would not agree with a Muslim being elected president.
Ibrahim Hooper is a spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations and says the Constitution expressly prohibits a religious test to qualify for elected office.
Hooper says Carson’s comments show he is not qualified for the presidency because he cannot hold such views about a religion and at the same time say he will represent Americans of all faiths and backgrounds.
Carson said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he would advocate that voters not put a Muslim in charge of the United States.
