Congressman Andre Carson (D-IN) is Sworn In

Mr. Carson is the second Muslim in Congress.

I think you'll like his answer to the question posed above by a reporter about 28 seconds into the video.

1. That's good! I'd like to take every person who thinks swearing in on non-Bibles is "wrong"

3. I thought that would be his answer too
but it wasn't...

His reply is even cooler and not what you're expecting...

5. I agree! I think everyone ought to be sworn in exactly as Carson was - it would
be a little change that would have tremendously important long-term benefits.

4. I repeat that fact everytime I get a chance -- Thomas Jefferson's Koran, that's
what Congressmember Ellison was sworn in on.

:evilgrin: indeed

No, it's the U.S. Constitution.
