Yet, the Church, meaning its people, will vote to elect a president ...

NO, only those who are *cafeteria Catholics* will do such a thing. That is why Pope Benedict called for a re-evangelization of such Catholics. There are also SOME who are absolutely ignorant of current events. They are just too busy with their jobs and daily demands. I personally know of one such Catholic who truly did not even know that Obama was pro-abortion. I shared lots of factual information with this person and the same person did not vote for him a second time....but there are others who are similarly ignorant.

I have seen that also.

Half my family is Roman Catholic, and they voted for Obama by in large because he was better for “the poor”. No real knowledge of anything else.

A few were so shocked about his abortion stance that they repented of that vote, but others just told me and my Catholic mother in law that we are lying.

Tribal identity.
