Dr. Mehmet Oz rarely talks about his faith on the campaign trail – but, if he wins, the son of Turkish émigrés could make history as the first Muslim elected to serve in the U.S. Senate.

"Pride and honor," Oz, the Pennsylvania GOP nominee, said in an interview last month when asked by ABC News' Linsey Davis what being the first Muslim in the chamber would mean to him.

He is already the first Muslim ever to be nominated by a major party for a Senate seat.

===============================================================
Oz being a Muslim is news to me as this is not mentioned in any Dem TV ads. But it would be if the parties were reversed.

Yet, because he's conservative, the woke progressive left will call him an uncle tom.
The left have always been the true bigots. They and their stupid identity politics can go to hell.

Would you vote for a Son of Allah?

Would you vote for a Son of Allah?

Allah is the Arabic word for God.
I don't care what faith someone has.
What matters is if they're loyal to the Constitution and America.
Oz is Muslim, but not a fundamentalist.

His faith is not a problem. He is.

Oz is a Turkish citizen.

I cannot describe to you exactly how little I care about him being Muslim.
