    Normally, the people.

    So hopefully, we can still overcome---even with this president.

    Easy, its Constitution. Many nations are blessed with natural resources and have good people but what is it about the U.S that allows them to succeed despite background and origin? The remarkable document called the U.S Constitution we have embedded with Judea-Christian values and our adherence to it. This post was edited by O-uknow at April 16, 2017 11:29 AM MDT

    Spell check but no, the Constitution does not reflect Muslim values only if they coincide with Christian. This post was edited by O-uknow at April 16, 2017 11:42 AM MDT

    The Founding Fathers may have thought it was embedded with such values, but recent judicial interpretations suggest it may not necessarily be so.

    .. and that by definition is not adhering to it, putting us on a dangerous path.
