Presidential Hopefuls Show More Zeal In Courting Religious Voters Than Their GOP Rivals
- Because politicians realize that religious people can be quite gullible and more accepting of authority, they will use religion to their advantage as much as possible.

- nexgen99,
And you believe he''s a closet Muslim why?
Did his threat to attack Al Quaeda in Pakastan have anything to do with your deductive conclusions? - Reply to this comment

If i was you I would be very concerned about the type of kingdom Obama wants to create because I believe he is a phony Christian and more of a closet Muslim. - Reply to this comment
- Dems, Keeping the Faith? Really?
It should read "Dems Find Election Year Religion" because that is most always the case. How can you believe and vote consistently one way and try to show up at church for a year and claim to have Faith? - Reply to this comment
- "A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side."

- Unlike Hitlery and the so-called GOP frontrunner, Giuliani, Dr. Paul fights for the right of an innocent, unborn child. He believes the right to life is at the heart of the American ideals of liberty. His professional and legislative record demonstrates his strong commitment to this pro-life principle. In 40 years of medical practice, he never once considered performing an abortion, nor did he ever find abortion necessary to save the life of a pregnant woman. In Congress, he authored legislation that seeks to define life as beginning at conception (HR 1094). He is also the prime sponsor of HR 300, which would negate the effect of Roe v Wade by removing the ability of federal courts to interfere with state legislation to protect life. This is a practical, direct approach to ending federal court tyranny which threatens our constitutional republic and has caused the deaths of 45 million of the unborn. He also authored HR 1095, which prevents federal funds to be used for population control. Many other GOP candidates, except Giuliani, talk about being pro-life. Ron Paul took direct action to restore protection for the unborn. As an OB/GYN doctor, he delivered over 4,000 babies. That experience made him an unshakable foe of abortion. Many of you may have his book, Challenge To Liberty, which champions the idea that there cannot be liberty in a society unless the rights of all innocents are protected. Ron Paul respects the dignity of human life.

- Hello sounds like George Bush pandering to the Christian votes in 2000 and 2004.......just the same old repeat of the ''good'' people in this country believing if they say ''CHRISTIAN'' that is what they are going to get........
Bush said Christian and look what they got - a guy that is rotten to the core........ - Reply to this comment
- I''m an Obama supporter and proud Christian, but I''m not comfortable hearing any politician talking about "creating a Kingdom right here on earth" and being an "instrument of God". In my view creating a kingdom here on earth is God''s domain, not his.
It''s also a bit pompous and conceited to declare oneself an instrument of God. Earth to Barak...get over yourself.
Christ was wotthy of conceit but was humble. We mortals, particularly the ones in politics, could stand to be more humble. - Reply to this comment
- I see how it is. When dems court Christians, they ''show zeal.'' When republicans court Chritians, they are pandering to the religious right wing zelots.
The LAMEstream media is nothing but a bunch of biased, hypocritical shills for democrats. The secret''s out and you WILL FAIL! - Reply to this comment

- Unlike Hitlery, and most of the other GOP candidates, Ron Paul actually served his country as a member of the military. Paul grew up in the western Pennsylvania town of Green Tree. His Father, the son of a German immigrant, ran a small dairy company. Sports were big around there and Paul was a terrific athlete, winning a state track meet in the 220 and excelling at football and baseball. After medical school at Duke, Paul joined the Air Force, where he served as a flight surgeon, tending to the ear, nose and throat ailments of pilots, and traveling to Iran, Ethiopia and elsewhere. "I recall doing a lot of physicals on Army warrant officers who wanted to become helicopter pilots and go to Vietnam," he said. "They were gung-ho. I''ve often thought about how many of those people never came back." Paul is given to mulling things over morally. His family was pious and Lutheran; two of his brothers became ministers. Paul''s children were baptized in the Episcopal church, but now he attends a Baptist one. He''s been married to the same woman for 50 years. As a young man, though, he did not protest the Vietnam War, which he now calls "totally unnecessary and illegal." Much later, after the United States invaded Iraq, he began reading St. Augustine. "I was annoyed by the evangelicals'' being so supportive of pre-emptive war, which seems to contradict everything that I was taught as a Christian," he recalls. "The religion is based on somebody who''s referred to as the Prince of Peace."
