This scares the hell out of me

?t=3

It isn't so much that they want a President who is a conservative, but they want a President they can control thru their religious leaders. They want to become the ayatollah's of America - the power behind a figure-head political leader.

Yes they do, and God help this country if these enemies of freedom ever get control of us!

They want to impose sharia law the same as ISIS does.
