Vote.

Personally it hasn't changed my views a majority Muslims are probably good people in the US but I don't like the Islamist portion of the religion which is seeming to grow.

What's the "Islamist portion"?
The more radical portion specifically in places like the suburbs of Paris and other larger European cities and the Middle East and North Africa.
Then say radical.

Islamist is just an adjective for Islam as far as I know.
Islamism is a political ideology that is centered around Islam, including things like Sharia and pan-Islamism. It is distinct from Islam like how Christian democracy is distinct from Christianity and Zionism is distinct from Judaism.

Isn't Islam already a political system from its very founding? Christian democracy was some combination ideology developed 1700 years after the religion started, so that doesn't seem like a good comparison at all.

Islamism is also very recent, with its origins in the late 19th C
