if there was a politician that wasnt the best for the nation, but spewed holy rhetoric, and made some stands in the name of God...would you overlook the problems and vote for him or her anyway?
on the same note
which is most important: the many problems with the large goverment, like reforms, or VALID threats to national security...VALID, not LIES(i havent seen one that wasnt possibly domestic...impeach bush for murder on 9/11!). or domestic problems arising from "moral decay".
thanks for answering!

The most important problem is spending 2.5 million dollars on the study of how ketchup flows out of a ketchup bottle.

Following Jesus is a way of life. You can't separate it from yourself because its a part of who you are. So your vote is based on what you believe.
In answer to your question, no. Using what I can from the media, I determine what is best for the country and the people when I select a candidate. It is very hard because some have something I like and but fall short in another area. So I try to choose based on who has the most attributes I am looking for in a leader. If he/she is a Christian that would be a plus.
I think national security needs to really be addressed since we now realize, isolation is gone and we have made many enemies. My second concern would be the moral decay that I see in America today.
Regarding Bush, I voted for him the first time but not the second. I follow this saying from Scripture:
In Romans 13:1 - "Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.

I vote for people who appear to be competent and whose past voting record and official policy statements most closely matches my own beliefs. I am not looking to elect a pastor, but someone to speak up for what I think is right.

I vote for the person who I think will do the proper job of running our government. Their religious beliefs do not tell if they are the right person for the job.
