Obama made his cowardly son a “hero.”

He’s used to special treatment.

The founders tried to prevent Obama from holding that office.

They put the natural born citizen clause in the Constitution.

Everybody in the District of Corruption wants it changed.
Precedent Obama was their way of doing that.

We must never let that happen again.
Obama is proof enough that they were right.
Naturally an American because they are born here of citizen parents and can’t be anything else.
Obama was born a British subject because of his foreign national father.
No foreign birth
No foreign parent(s)
No foreign citizenship(s)
Solely an American

There is only reason for America to ‘reach out’ to islam: to throttle the life out of it and, having accomplished that, to tear out its throat.

Lock him up. We have room in Gitmo for those who are a threat to this country. Pres. Trump will not be blackmailed by these leeches who contribute nothing but headaches in our country. We have too many Muslims in our country and the lessons from Europe should be taken very seriously.

They should be doing everything they can, as loyal American citizens, to assist in defeating extremist Islam.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They can’t, because there is no extremist Islam, there is only Islam. There is no moderate Koran.
As muslims they are religiously obligated to subjugate, convert or kill all infidels and make everyone on earth submit to sharia law.
They are commanded by their prophet in their book to continue jihad as they have since 622 A.D.
There can be no peace until there is only Islam or no Islam.
Mad Mo made it so.

That’s why there should be a TOTAL ban on muslims.

No muslims —> much better US security.

Muslim ban will hurt Khizr Khan’s bottom line, so he’s going to whine about Trump on CNN.

“He should be reaching out to Muslims. He should be reaching out, joining hands to deal with the safety of the United States.”

...

Look at how well that worked when BO did it. One mass murder after another.

“Moderate” Muslims don’t do anything but whine and play the victim. We don’t need them.

"Banning Muslims from certain countries is a pretext to a Muslim ban, which is against the immigration policy of this country, which says that no person will be banned from entering this country because of their religious faith," Khan said.

Oh, contraire, Khan...

From http://lawnewz.com/high-profile/president-obama-is-wrong-on-the-law-trump-mostly-right-on-muslim-ban/

First, the U.S. Supreme Court has held on several occasions that governments may take into account criteria such as race (and presumably religion), provided that the decision serves a compelling governmental interest, and that the factor is only one of several considered. That, after all, is the basis upon which, under so-called affirmative action, state colleges may discriminate on the basis of race in determining who is to be admitted.

It seems clear that preventing mass murder by terrorists is at least as much a compelling governmental interest as achieving racial diversity in the classroom, and therefore that religion may be considered – presumably together with other factors such as age, gender, country of origin, visits to suspicious countries, etc. – as one factor in determining which refugees should be admitted.

The Department of Justice likewise recognizes that, while so-called racial (and similar) profiling is illegal in many situations, exceptions exist with regard to both preventing terrorist attacks and in determining who enters the country.

The second reason is the so-called “plenary power doctrine” which Prof Posner has described in these words:

“The Supreme Court has held consistently, for more than a century, that constitutional protections that normally benefit Americans and people on American territory do not apply when Congress decides who to admit and who to exclude as immigrants or other entrants. This is called the plenary power doctrine. The Court has repeatedly turned away challenges to immigration statutes and executive actions on grounds that they discriminate on the basis of race, national origin, and political belief, and that they deprive foreign nationals of due process protections. While the Court has not ruled on religious discrimination, it has also never given the slightest indication that religion would be exempt from the general rule.”

After quoting Prof. Posner, law professor Eugene Volokh, of the UCLA School or Law, adds that following:

“I would add that, in Kleindienst v. Mandel (1972), the Supreme Court applied the ‘plenary power doctrine’ to the exclusion of people based on their political beliefs, despite the Free Speech Clause. The cases that Posner is referring to, together with Kleindienst, suggest that the exclusion of people based on their religious beliefs is likewise constitutional.”
