Subject: Asian American Candidates, Muslim American Candidates
Here are the compiled lists of Asian American and Muslim American
candidates for top Administration jobs, sub-cabinet jobs, and outside
boards/agencies/policy committees. A couple things to note about the list
of Muslim American candidates:
1) In the candidates for top jobs, I excluded those with some Arab
American background but who are not Muslim (e.g., George Mitchell). Many
Lebanese Americans, for example, are Christian. In the last list (of
outside boards/commissions), most who are listed appear to be Muslim
American, except that a handful (where noted) may be Arab American but of
uncertain religion (esp. Christian).
2) There is only one candidate I thought was a viable one for a
Secretary-level job among the Muslim Americans. That said, on both lists,
there are some very senior people listed in the last category (for outside
boards/commissions) who conceivably could be considered for top jobs. The
very senior people I put on the last list tended not to be terribly
involved in politics or policy, or in the case of some Asian Americans,
had already served in the Clinton and even Carter Administrations and so I
thought we should seek new talent. But there's no magic to some of the
placements. I think the lists are fairly exhaustive, but some of the
people may be moved to other categories.
3) High-profile Muslim Americans tend to be the subject of a fair amount
of blogger criticism, and so the individuals on this list would need to be
ESPECIALLY carefully vetted. I suspect some of the people I list would
not survive such a vet -- but I do personally know, at least in part,
virtually all of the candidates in the 1st two categories (but I know very
few of those listed for outside boards/commissions).
4) I listed the elected Muslim American democratic officials at the end
of the second category, but for various reasons, I didn't think any of
them would necessarily be suitable for an Administration appointment.
Nevertheless, I wanted to flag them for you in case you wanted to evaluate
them further.
DOJ list will be coming in the next two days. Judges and USAttorneys will
still take about 10 days. Let me know if the latter are needed sooner.

Are Arabic non-muslims less qualified to hold govt office?
No but Arab Muslims should be sterilized and deported.
I think it's quite illustrative enough of their general modus operandi

Its perfectly clear to me......tack it on to the slurs against the Catholic religion and the angry white men, or the needy Latinos in their party....or those clinging to their God and their guns...except for
Muslims of course.....
