Matthew 5 (KJV)
5:1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
5:2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
5:4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
5:7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

Most likely but I certainly hope not. It makes sense though, a rep. isn't going to let you nail them to a cross. I could see John Kerry up there though.

he was repeating confucionism
sounds just like a monk giving a mountain sermon as confucious did
the pure in heart see god because they no longer see greed and profit based on religion and milking others into letting you control them with it

For the time he was, he went against the conservative Jews. What's the point of the Bible verse anyway?

No, He would have been a moderate, if He was political at all.
"Judge not" means He would have had a serious issue with many conservative Republicans.
"Go and sin no more" means He would have had a problem with most liberals.

he is talking about the law of the kingdom of heaven that will come to the jews one day and a principle that is good to live by on earth today.

Of course Jesus was liberal. He accepted people as they were and didn't try to condemn them for their thoughts and beliefs. He advised, not judged.
