Ben Carson Refuses To Back Down: The President Should Be Sworn In On A Stack Of Bibles, Not A Koran [VIDEO] According to recent reports, Dr. Ben Carson has refused to give in to pressures and has actually defended his views that Muslims should not be put in charge of this nation. Dr. Carson also claimed that the president of the United States should be sworn in on a stack of Bibles, not a Koran. During an interview with NBC, Carson was asked by host Chuck Todd whether he believes Islam is consistent with the Constitution. No I do not, the presidential hopeful concluded. I do not.
