Obama...only cause theres not other choice...christians founded this country...interesting....didn't know the american indians were christian....learn something new everyday  Many are Christians now.  christians make up a small percentage of people that live in the USA NOT! 78.4% of Americans are Christians, about 5% belong to other faith traditions and 16.1% are unaffiliated with any religion. Secular unaffiliated Americans account for 6.3% of the population; religious unaffiliated, 5.8%; atheists, 1.6%; and agnostics, 2.4%. At 1.7% of the population, Jews make up the next-largest religious group. Buddhists are 0.7% of the population; Muslims 0.6%; and Hindus and New Age followers, both 0.4%. http://www.pewforum.org/surveys/

I was thinking that what he said was very wrong. There are too many churches to count in my neighborhood. |

Personally, I'm against anyone who WANTS to be a politician running the country...
But maybe that's just me.  Vote BoneyJoe.

 me personally im sorry but i dont like the idea of having a president that will not even salute our flag! and like it or not this country was founded by christians and to me its a smack in the face to all that have fought and died (God rest their souls, and Bless their families) and do fight for all we Americans believe in, with me its not a racial issue at all..as some might believe, but it is a Proud to be an AMERICAN issue and to have a President that will NOT salute OUR national flag would be a disgrace! again please dont argue everyone has the right to their own opinions (one of our freedoms). I was just curious how others felt! This claim has been disproven. http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/stance.asp You can't believe everything the right-wing media tells you and their are a lot of rumors going around. Don't be exploited! |

I don't support Obama... yet. But when I hear many of the reasons people give for -not- supporting him, I wonder: Thats the best they can come up with?

We recently discussed one of them, just think back. Lindyy, She said -banned-, not -bashed-. The fact that a collection of individuals each all express their opinions does not, of itself, mean Christian beliefs are being banned. |
