Religious Tests for Refugees

Speaking in Turkey this week, President Barak Obama, took issue with those suggesting a much more stringent system of vetting perspective refugees is necessary, by saying 'That's not American. That’s not who we are. We don’t have religious tests to our compassion.'

In light of the fact, that Islam is unique, in that it has both a political and religious aspect, and most of the terrorist activity is done around the world is done by those claiming allegiance to the Islamic teaching, shouldn't their be greater scrutiny of those Muslims seeking refuge in America?

On the program today, Dr. Gregg Frazer - Professor of History & Political Studies, joins me to discuss this idea of Religious tests both for those running for office and for refugees.
