Does anyone know anything about this guy? All the article gave me is that he’s in favour of something being reformed in some way.

All I know is that he pointed out in the presidential debate that the Quaran says nothing about hajabs or the proper way of wearing them. Sounds like a good first step.

Although, half of the county didn’t vote, because they know that the person in charge of everything important is the Supreme Leader.
