True, there are alot of liberal Muslims nowdays, I heard the vast majority of Muslims voted for Hillary Clinton in the recent election (9 out of 10) and that more than 80% voted for Obama in the past two elections, however before that time, they were a natural republician ally.
80% voted for George Bush in the 2000 election and its been similar before that. If you lived in the Muslim community before 9/11, you were naturally expected to vote republician. Makes sense since like republicians, Muslims shared many of the same values such as on taxes (many Muslims were business owners), same sex marriage, abortion, individual responsibility over governmental influence etc.
