Protect america and instead protecting the image of islam. >> reporter: and as they jostle about how to approach this, there is new insight on how the american voter is thinking, a new poll out by the "washington post" and abc news which showed that a majority of americans, 54%, believes that the u.s. should not take in syrian refugees at all. and perhaps even more strike, only 13% are very confident that the u.s. is able to identify possible terrorists who could be mixed in with the refugees wa...

Consider former nypd commissioner, ray kelly for a member in his administration and i followed up further and asked about his take on the syrian refugee situation and i noticed in paris they declared a state of emergency that includes increased warrantless searches. so, given he was talking about extensive surveillance on the muslim community in the u.s., i asked if that would include warrantless searches, he said we should be doing some things that are quote on quote unthinkable and would make ...

And even more striking, even 13% are very confident that the u.s. will be able to identify terrorists among the refugees. sunlen serfati, cnn, des moines, iowa. >> all right. so lets bring in the panel and talk more about this. in washington, cnns senior political analyst and editorial director of the "national review," ron brownstein, good to see you. and cnn politics senior reporter, steven collins. and with me here in atlanta, cnn analyst, joey jackson. hello to you. so the candidates using v...

Carved thick. thats the right way to make a good turkey sandwich. the right way to eat it? is however you eat it. panera. food as it should be. republican presidential candidate, donald trump once again ratcheted up his rhetoric on american muslims. he had spent the past couple of days backing off his response to a multiple reporter questions about the data base of american muslims that he said would be a good idea but today at an event in birmingham, alabama he said he wanted surveillance of ...

Disappointed to hear what mr. trump had to say. for anyone who is seeking to be the ceo and commander and chief of our great nation, he or she has to know that there are over eight million muslims, many of whom are police officers, engineers, lawyers, judges, executives, who are making contributions to this country and he or she must know, has to know that to establish or even suggest to establish a muslim data base is reminiscent of what our jewish friends had to endure in nazi germany. >> that...

>> reporter: its a debate in the republican party, how to handle the syrian refugees in the wake of the paris attacks. and donald trump taking a hard line and not willing to take anything off the table including potentially creating a data base to track all muslims living in the u.s. and closing matter-of-courmosques. >> we should have a lot of systems and today you can do it but right now we need have a border, strength and a wall and we cant let -- i would certainly implement that. >> reporter...

Governor of ohio, john kasich, make a reactionary proposal. while speaking at the national press club, he proposed a new federal agency to promote judeo christian values. no, governor. promoting a set of religious values, thats what they do. it only got worse as the week wore on. thursday, when a reporter asked donald trump whether his white house would compile a database of all muslims in america, trump replied, i would certainly implement that, absolutely. and then he added that he would go be...

That. absolutely. >> muslims specific live how do you get them registered. >> just good management. you have to do is good management procedures and we can do that. thats nice. >> do you go to mosques and sign people up? >> different places. you sign them up -- its all about management. our country has no management. >> today trump tweeted this clarification. i didnt suggest a data base, a reporter did. we must defeat islamic terrorism and have surveillance including a watch list to protect amer...

The ability to come into this country is shamefully easy. we are being told by our president and the attorney general this woman of great character, who i know personally, that theyre checking databases to vet these people. i can tell you as a professional investigator, there is no vetting process. it is impossible. there is no country to make inquiries of. for example, if an american citizen travels to any country abroad the host government can call their contact person, reach out to our govern...

All right, since the terror attacks in paris one week ago, the fight against isis has become a major election issue in the u.s., but its what some of the candidates are saying that is fueling a debate about the fight on terror and how the u.s. should deal with refugees. our sunlen serfati is following that story. >> very simply, we cant take them, folks. we cant take them. >> reporter: its a debate roiling in the republican party. how to handle the resettlement of syrian refugees in the wake of ...
