Point pertama barangkali adalah : jangan mengedepankan SARA dalam pilkada. Beda sama yang disini sekarang. Rhoma Irama saja bilang SARA tidak apa-apa (sebab mungkin itu satu-satunya senjata tersisa buat memojokkan seorang non-muslim yang sangat potensial). Coba kalau aturan Rhoma Irama ini diterapkan di kota kecil di Texas tersebut, pasti nanti dibilang : muslim didiskriminasi. Disini kok malah ada yang setuju SARA dipakai di pilkada. Mungkin menggunakan logika fasis seperti ini : saya boleh mendiskriminasi orang lain, tapi orang lain dilarang mendiskriminasi saya ...

Kan dia bilang kalau sedang melakukan kateterisasi jantung, dia meringkas shalatnya dari 5 menjadi 3 x. But I think that is not the point.
