Could this be why the DNC removed Jerusalem and God? Muslims Have More DNC Delegates than Montana, Utah and Oklahoma Put Together

From Will at The Other News:




Could this be why the DCN removed Jerusalem and God? Muslims Have More DNC Delegates than Montana, Utah and Oklahoma Put Together.(FM).By DanielGreenField.

Number of delegates for the Great State of Oklahoma – 50.

Number of delegates for the Great State of Utah - 34.

Number of delegates for the Great State of Montana- 31.

Number of delegates for the Great State of Vermont – 27.

Number of delegates for the Great State of Nevada – 44.

Number of delegates for the Great State of Iowa – 65.

Number of Muslim delegates – 100.

The number of Muslim delegates attending the Democratic National Convention has quadrupled since 2004, according to a Muslim advocacy group. The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations counts more than 100 Muslim delegates representing some 20 states at the Democratic convention in Charlotte, N.C., this week. That’s up from 25 delegates in 2004, according to CAIR. Isn’t that great. 

And who needs Montana anyway when we have the State of Islam? Muslims had around 5 percent of the delegates in a Democratic Party convention for a country where they aren’t even 1 percent of the population. Maybe in the next election they can quadruple it again and have 20 percent of the delegates.

Dem Convention Chair Villaraigosa: “Boggles My Mind” We Didn’t Have God, Jerusalem In Platform, “I Can’t Defend That”




After acting to re-insert language to their platform that mentions both God and that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, Democrats found themselves on the defensive Thursday against Republican attacks over the moves.

Republicans pointed reporters to discord within the Democratic Party over the fight, accusing the Obama administration of waffling over the Jerusalem-as-capital issue.

“The questions over the Democrat platform haven’t stopped this morning and are overtaking any message [former President Bill] Clinton had last night,” the Republican National Committee said in an email.

The chairman of the convention, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, said on CNN Thursday that the omissions were a mistake. “The notion we wouldn’t have God and Jerusalem in our platform boggles my mind,” he said. “I can’t defend that.”
