Duncan Hunter’s fall from grace has thrust his Democrat opponent in the spotlight. His family heritage is something that has been generating controversy. Fox News reports:
California Democratic congressional candidate Ammar Campa-Najjar was barely on anyone’s radar last week in his longshot bid against GOP Rep. Duncan Hunter, in an overwhelmingly Republican district.
But after Hunter’s indictment Tuesday on corruption charges, including allegations of lavish personal spending with campaign funds, Campa-Najjar is suddenly a contender.
With his boosted chances, though, has come scrutiny of his dark family past — his grandfather was a member of the Palestinian Black September terror group that killed 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich.
The 29-year-old political neophyte, who has both Mexican and Palestinian heritage, has been quick and unequivocal in separating himself from Muhammad Yusuf al-Najjar.
While being related to a terrorist is by no means a disqualification, it does raise questions as to whether Campa-Najjar would be willing to support Israel.
I TOTALLY agree. Muslims are infiltrating our politics but everything is excepted in CA my state because the crazy liberals are anti-american and don’t care about it’s legal residents and crime is rampant along with homelessness. Anybody that votes for these people is signing their own death certificate.

those IDIOTS IN KALIFORNIA WOULD ELECT ANY ONE WHO IS AGAINST AMERICAN.
