I contend there are more Republicans and moderates that will not for a man that is outwardly campaigning on his religious affiliation. You Hucksters have to get that through your thick skulls.

Huck is stuck with a self-identified group. I would never vote for a preacher for president, or a priest, or a rabbi or an imam.

The first Christian said unto Caesar what is Caesar’ s and unto G-d what is G-d’s.

I am not a Huckabee supporter. I’m a Thompson supporter.

I simply said that Huck is the closest to defeating Romney in Michigan, something that I want to see happen.

Romney is a Bishop. Would you vote for him?

So, Christians have to hide their religious views in order to get your vote. No wonder Christian Conservatives like myself feel like we are barely welcome in the Republican Party.

How about a bishop or stake president? They are comparable to priests and archbishops.

Well, to start with, Jesus is not a Christian because it makes no sense for Jesus to follow himself. Jesus is God. In the second place, he was ridiculing the Pharisees for worshiping the Roman monetary system which used the graven image of Caesar.

Everything belongs to God. All governments belong to Jesus, both the really evil ones and the less evils ones. He uses governments to bless people with things like unity, tranquility, justice, common defense, the general welfare, liberty etc. He also uses governments to punish people with: politics, exploitation, injustice, poorly fought wars, abortion, treaties, corruption, excessive taxes and regulation, open borders, public schools, free lunch, and other tyrannies too numerous to mention.

The persuasive skills and mind set of a preacher are very valuable in a President, as opposed to compulsion.
