CNN Anchor: What About The Muslim Vote? (video)

CNN's Erin Burnett tries to make the case that the Muslim vote is a key swing vote in the upcoming presidential election.

"Muslims make up less than 1% of the population but there's big populations of Muslims in swing states like Pennsylvania, Michigan and Virginia and they could turn the vote," Burnett said. "That sort of sounds like the Jewish conversation we were having a few months ago when it came up that 46% of the Jewish population that supported Barack Obama were not excited about voting for him this time. Could you see a small group like this making a difference this fall?"

I don’t know. I guess it depends on the concentration of muslims in swing states? It is plausible.

I find it amazing that both muslims and Jews are voting for a muslim president in America.

Big Muslim vote in Pennsylvania? I don’t see it.
Will very occasionally see a woman in a hijab walking through the grocery store or the park.

Michigan may be a different story though.

The only possible state where the Jewish vote could make a difference is Florida.

Jews are overwhelmingly crammed into around 30 Congressional Districts, with just 23 CDs having as much as 10% Jewish votes.

Besides Florida, Jews are concentrated in New York, New Jersey, D.C., Massachusetts, Maryland, Connecticut, and California, with no other state having as much as 3% Jewish votes. Good luck flipping those!

The only way Mooslimbs could effect this election...is if they blew something up on our soil.

So, Erin, are you admitting to us that you think Zero is a muslim?

Do any of you guys remember the interview she did with “Tingles the Spritzer” where he tried to literally get her panties off on screen? It was embarrassing. I often wondered if Tingles wife saw it? Burnett blushed but Tingles was feeling something else in his pants leg that night! LOL!

I'd say Baraq Hussein mohammed 0bama has the communist party vote and the muzzie vote pretty well locked up.

Of course, this small group could make a big difference at the polls, they do in the middle east.

This person is clearly an imbecile; even if the population is 1%, the voting age of Muslims is .5% if that, not to mention, some of that .5% can’t even vote since they are here for amnesty reasons, or are here on visas. That person should be chearleading the Jewish vote, they are a bigger voting block; the ones who helped usher in this usurper-in-chief-—think 1930’s Germany, when most of the Jewish population voted for Hitler! I bet if an Israeli was able to vote for Obama in 2012, there would be maybe 1% that would vote for this communist, and that 1% should be the new arrivals, fresh off the boat from the USA.
