---------------------- Here are some of my talking points; ... so they are not constructed as an essay.
Let’s
keep America great forever!
It
is disappointing to hear the uncouth rhetoric from the presidential candidate,
Donald Trump.
The role of the President is to keep America safe from outside forces and internal conflicts, and to help Americans achieve in their pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.
Mr. Trump has trampled on the very fundamental values of our immortal declaration, “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.“

Mr. Trump has trampled on the very fundamental values of our immortal declaration, “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.“
The very first
amendment guarantees its citizens the freedom of religion and states, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof” there
is absolutely no religious test to be given to anyone, but Mr. Trump wants to
give religious tests to those who want to enter the United States, is he going
against what America stands for?
Is Mr. Trump a traitor for violating our constitution?
No, he is not; the beauty of our land is, we allow freedom of speech to everyone, and that is the inalienable right of Americans. If that freedom allows one to yell fire in a theater and cause mishaps and deaths, the utterer is responsible for such losses.
There is an old saying “evil exists in the world, because good people do nothing about it.” Indeed, it is shocking to see the support Trump is receiving from the cesspool of a small percent of Republicans. The same goes to the other bigot Carson, who is what he is today because of the equal rights and civil rights act and he wants to violate them as well.
Mr. Trump is an ungrateful man; he forgets that many of men and women who have served him or his management and staff are Muslims among Indians, who are Doctors, Engineers, Architects and Managers in managing and sustaining his empire. Mr. Trump forgets that the cell phone he uses was the invention of the son of a Muslim immigrant, the extensive business he has set up in Dubai is with Muslims, the ones he does not want to enter America.
The brunt of his rhetoric and subsequent actions will be borne by average middle class Americans, not him, absolutely not him or his ilk but the Americans. What if Russians see this opportunity and offer all the Muslim nations to supply arms, grains, and technology? Nearly fourth of our employment in the US is based on dealings with the Muslim majority nations. God forbid if Trump were to be the president, Americans are screwed.
I have full faith in American constitution, and trust the majority of my fellow Americans to have the moral integrity to do what is right, and that is to speak out against disruptive, divisive rhetoric. I am proud of America, my fellow Americans who are Republicans, are finally coming to the point to say, we had enough of this bull and start condemning evil. I appreciate the leadership of Senator Lindsey Graham, not only did he tell Trump to “go to hell,” he also articulated the need to be morally right and not worry about the consequences in politics.
Just look at our record, we have never nominated an extremist as a presidential candidate who was hell bent on pitting one Americans against the other and messing with the character of our nation. Never!
Trump will be dumped or the Republicans stand to lose. Look at the election mathematics – Obama won over Romney 51-49% of the votes. In November 2000, Bush received 50, 456, 002 votes against Gore’s 50,999, 897 Votes but won the election by 5 electoral votes 271 V 266.
In a 2012 people survey by Pew research, 35% of registered voters identify with Democratic Party, 28% with Republicans and 33% as independents. The current number may be different, but the point is the importance of independent voters, who can tilt the results either way. Almost the entire conservative and supremacist vote goes to the Republicans, that leave the tilting votes in the hands of immigrants who are Hispanic, Muslims, and others, add to that Jewish vote for Democrats.
As an American Muslim, who revere’s America’s constitution on par with all the holy books including Quran, which places the greatest value on human rights, dignity, individualism, and accountability of individual’s actions towards building a cohesive society, I cherish the checks and balances built in our constitution.
I believe we need to seriously consider placing our loyalty to America over loyalty to the party. We need to develop a system where we can shape the majority in the Senate and Congress to each party and not the same party, and work on giving them simple majority. It will allow serious debates on the issues and prevent slam dunking the bills. Indeed, most of the bad things that have happened in America can be attributed to big majorities for the same party in both the houses. It has to be on our minds.

“Governments are
instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the
governed.” and we have to exercise that consent now.
I am confident; Americans at large will dump this man.
Let’s keep America great forever!

Role of Muslims in America.
Role of Muslims in America.
It is the responsibility of all Americans to help law enforcement officials in maintaining law and order and to assure the safety of every citizen. It is the duty of all of us to fight against radicalization through education and community engagement and work on promoting peace and harmony.
Muslims have consistently stood up against extremism and radicalism.
Some of the steps we have taken to counter terrorism:
1. A small step for Muslims, but a giant leap for America. http://americanmusliminstitution.blogspot.com/2015/11/a-small-step-for-muslims-but-giant-leap.html
2. Evil
exists because good people do nothing about it, as Good Muslims we are
condemning the ISIS and Terrorist. This is the first time; Muslims have
demonstrated against Terrorism 20 seconds video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3I-cjFMth-E
3. This
item has captured the essence of demonstrations on the steps of Lincoln
Memorial http://www.viewsnews.net/2015/11/21/american-muslims-condemn-isis-terrorism/
4. This press release is
about the San Bernardino Mass shooting

5. Meeting with Ben Carson http://theghousediary.blogspot.com/2015/10/meeting-dr-ben-carson-mike-ghouse.html
As American Muslims we have
a greater responsibility in countering radicalization and violent
extremism.
We are countering one of the most difficult times in the last thirty
plus years. The San Bernardino mass
shooting coupled with presidential candidate Donald Trump’s rhetoric has
ratcheted the apprehensions, and there are some who are adding fuel to the
fire.
Muslims across the nations are going through serious soul searching and meeting every place and in every city. The situation is severe.
Muslims across the nations are going through serious soul searching and meeting every place and in every city. The situation is severe.
We have a responsibility to bring comfort to the frightened ones, and
seriously participate in shaping a secure and safe America for every
American.
We have bad apples, but they are proportionate to our population. We need to take concrete steps to bring positive changes but not excessive reactions.
There is a lot
more…. But hope this will address the items you had mentioned.
