I have heard several conservatives state that Huma Abedin should not have been allowed to become Hillary Clinton's aide because she is a Muslim. Apparently, these people have not read Article 4 of the U.S. Constitution, which states in part "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."

A lot of these people who keep bloviating about their devotion to the Constitution have not bothered to read it.
