Ohio and Trump banning Muslims ...

"Back in Ohio, Cleveland Clinic caters to international patients with specialty wings that can be cordoned off, personal translators and coordinators, and hotel accommodations that allow for specialty dietary restrictions. In 2012, the Clinic treated 3,200 foreign patients, and about 35% of those patients from the Middle East."

I helped a friend traveling to the Cleveland Clinic for foot surgery. The Cleveland Clinic has a first class reputation for Health Care around the world, especially in the Middle East. My first day at the Intercontinental Hotel, I shared the elevator with a Saudi royal family member. Cleveland is dependent on Muslim visitors who travel for to the U.S. for top health care. Muslims were everywhere, just sick people with their families, seeking the best health care. It was a sight to see. Donald Trump would ban Muslims from entering the U.S. ..... No doubt the negative economic effect this would have on Ohio and health of many Muslims that travel to the U.S. for the best. Ohio ... ban Trump, not Muslims!

are a threat to America. Then you might be scared enough to see Donald's "wisdom".

As an Ohioan I had not thought about the effect of the Muslim ban on the Cleveland Clinic.

If I go into a restroom in North Carolina do I get my genitalia checked? If I arrive at an airport from overseas does a halo magically appear over my head to allow entry?
