According to the Texas state constitution I am disqualified from holding public office. I am an intelligent person who has been very involved in politics since I can remember. I did volunteer work for canidates long before I could vote. I was not planning on running for office, but then I read this:
"Texas' State Constitution, Article 1 Section 4
"No religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office, or public trust, in this State; nor shall any one be excluded from holding office on account of his religious sentiments, provided he acknowledge the existence of a Supreme Being."
Maybe I should run for something. Check your own state constitutions. There are a number of them that say likewise.
