Ben Carson: I Would Not Advocate For A Muslim President

Ben Carson isn't afraid to give his opinion about the question of a Muslim President of the United States.

On NBC's Meet The Press on Sunday (also airing Sunday's at noon on WIBX 950), host Chuck Todd was asking the question: Does a President's religious beliefs matter, and would you be comfortable/okay with a Muslim present?

Donald Trump paused when asked, they said he didn't know and would have to think about it.

Carson, not so much.

"I would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation. I absolutely would not agree with that," Carson said, also saying he didn't believe Islamic beliefs are consistent with U.S. Constitution.

When asked about a Muslim representative in Congress: "Congress is a different story. But, it depends on who that Muslim is and what their policies are. Just like it depends on what anybody else [believes].''
