Do they belong to a religion that says we should stone women for being raped? Do they belong to a religion that says we should murder gays? Do they belong to a religion that states as a core belief that the Government should be run by religious laws?Man running to be first Muslim governor in the U.S.

From what I'm reading, he isn't running on a platform of being a Muslim governor. He's an American-citizen and Muslim running for the governorship of his state.
What are your thoughts and Jews, Catholics, Druids, or Episcopalians running for public office?
Most of us belong to a religion that at one time espoused such things. I myself belong to a faith that believes consuming a cheeseburger is a mortal sin. But, we're Americans now. We don't judge a person by their race, colour, or creed ... but by their words and deeds.
Is there any indication that he wants to, or would have any success in, implementing stonings, murders, or similar barbarities? Is he campaigning on a platform of religious rule of law?
America is great, not because of it's industrial or military might. We are great because we were founded on the idea that people could come from all over the world and become Americans. If we want to keep America great, we can never forget that.
