Anyone can "say" they are christian, and it is funny how they have to mention they attend church-- going to church DOES NOT make you a christian! (Of course going to church is what we should be doing AS christians, but it does not save us- it is only by the blood of Christ that we are saved, when we believe in Him and repent of sin)
I do not know honestly, I have heard good things about Huckabee. And I laugh my head off when I hear about Stephen Colbert, which I love his show and he is hilarious but he is too much on the "left" --- so as far as being a born again christian, I don't think he is. I mean from what I hear-- even though he makes me laugh my butt off. (He is running for president in South Carolina- LOL)
God knows the heart of every single person, and are they LIVING for the Lord? Are they seeking GODLY counsel? Or are they just trying to give people what they want? The man who walks in the ways of the Lord is the man I would choose, but I cannot say- I mean really this day and age a lot of people are just "talkers" and not walkers-- and James 1:22 says "Be doers of the word and not merely hearers who delude themselves"

it's not Hillary!!! JMO of course,, even though she says :: " I consider myself an evangelical Christian, really a Christian conservative"
I have also read these quotes::
Mitt Romney has emphasized that he is a "person of faith".....
Ron Paul is a man of faith. He is a Protestant Christian and a regular churchgoer.
To Mike Huckabee, Baptist minister, former governor, and GOP candidate for president, being a good Christian is about redemption and forgiveness and recognizing his own frailties so he can be more understanding of the shortcomings of others..( He had let a man out of prison on parole who raped and murdered another woman awhile back which will not help him win the Presidency.)
John McCain said: I am a Christian and I attend a Baptist church. I am very aware that immersion is part—as my wife Cindy has done—is necessary to be considered a Baptist. So I was raised Episcopalian, I have attended the North Phoenix Baptist Church for many years and I am a Christian.
Fred Thompson says that he's not only a Christian, but a member of the fundamentalist Churches of Christ.
Rudy Giuliani supports abortion and gay rights. He has been twice divorced and is estranged from his two children. He was raised Roman Catholic and attended Catholic schools, though he does not regularly attend church. Culdn't find much on him saying that he's a Christian
Barack Obama said: "I am a Christian.… So, I have a deep faith. I'm rooted in the Christian tradition
John Edwards has made numerous statements about his Christian faith, including that he is, in fact, “a Christian.”
so,, pretty much all of them are "Christians" but not one of them mentioned "Born AGAIN Christians" Only God knows..

Personally, I don't see any of the main candidates as "Christian" (confession: I don't even see Bush as "Christian). So I will have to go with Rocco, a dog who is running for president. Dogs are mans best friend, and since Jesus is supposed to be our good friend then Rocco MUST be the most "Christian"

Modern American politics and Christianity have nothing in common. And more to the point, every time in the history of the world that Christianity has tried to marry itself with the government, the Christian message has become perverted.

Oh what an intelligent, pertinent question. It's so on point with the elections coming up and all. I'll just bet it took you hours to think up this very meaningful question. I'm so impressed. As a Christian I want to thank you for this question and give you my answer. I think Hillary is the most charitable, Christian of all the candidates... and she plans to use our tax dollars to fund all these give away entitlement programs. Yes indeed, Hillary is my choice!

Religion and politics don't mix, and shouldn't.
BOTH parties and ALL candidates have problems.
There's a book about it,
it's called
The Myth of a Christian Nation: How the Quest for Political Power is Destroying the Church
by Gregory A. Boyd.

This is what's wrong with America! George Bush is an awful president, the worst in years, in fact. (anecdote: religion teaches blind faith, and that's why political parties work. You just pick the one that is running for your party, not who's better for the country.)
Anyways, please do what's right for the country and vote for the president that will correct our current Christian president's many mistakes.
