I was very impressed in the immediate action you took beginning your term as president. You have been very straightforward and made decisions to make a change for our nation. Today with the problems of terrorism raging in our country it is good to have a man in office who will take decisive steps to serve our nation faithfully. Today we see problems finding middle ground between discriminating Muslims for our safety and still offering a hopeful refuge for people of the world seeking opportunity.

The ban is keeping out the good muslims while others more than likely slide in under the radar. We have developed Islamophobia and it is just what ISIS wants. They want to know they are in our heads causing distress in everyday lives. We have become anti-muslim in defense to our fears. Harvard University in the Pluralism Project tells this, ”On December 30, 2004, also in California, a Muslim woman wearing a hijab was pushing her baby in a stroller when a man in a truck almost ran them over near a gas station.
