This headline caught me by surprise. Isn't Tunisia a predominantly Muslim dominanated country? So I did some searching. This guy was the prime minister for awhile and set up what is called a “secular” coalition to run things. I can't find a party platform but it appears they want something similar to Turkey where the Islamic leaders don't have a say-so in government.
And the people voted for this?
