I can tell by your comments that you have good convictions and intents. I know of no way to judge the humility, wisdom, selflessness, fairness, discernment you mention except to look for applications in the lives of our elected.

I am hopeful people everywhere start to understand a few basic truths. Among those are:

Being good for business does not automatically make something good for our nation. If it were so, these people would stop squawking about abortion, stop squawking about our businesses relocating overseas, and be quite satisfied with the recent ruling by the Supreme Court on eminent domain, to name a few instances. These people must stop thinking that whatever is good for business is good for America. It's just not true.

Just because someone speaks of God doesn't mean he or she is in harmony with God.

There are many factions of our population now claiming the mantle of conservatism, but some, maybe too many, are just using it as a device to increase their own personal gain of wealth and power.
