| If I could vote, I would vote for Barney Fife! (I honestly hate politicians, and find that every last one of them is a false, tricksey, wicked, evil, twisted lying self-centered @$$ that is out to step on everyone to receive personal gain). |

I am disappointed that President Bush is considering dividing Israel however I am happy with his conservative Supreme Court appointments.
I watched the Republican nominees debate last week. I was a little dishearted at first. Mitt Romney would not admit that he felt every word in the Bible was true. Rudy Guiliani said he is pro choice and has been married 3 times. I felt Mike Huckeberry did pretty good as well as Duncan Hunter and Fred Thompson. I am still undecided and need to do more research. How about you? I want God's man for the hour. Righteousness. God is not done with America. We shall have a mighty revival in our land like no other! |

| Victorious- Are you leaning towards a nominee yet? Who? |
|
|
| I've been listening to the various candidates and checking out positions on their websites. So far I'm most impressed with Huckabee. The 'Berlin Wall' at the Mexican border makes me crazy, but other than that, he seems to reflect a blend of faith, conservative values and compassion that most closely represent my own positions. And his tax plan could actually work. Problem is, I don't know if he could capture enough of the vote to win. |
|
|
| I am very concerned that we Christian's may choose a candidate b/c of his faith statement, when God may want to raise up another & covert him over after election. The thought never came to my mind until I heard Kim Clement ( A Prophet ) say that the Lord showed him a non christian in office, then becoming a christian after elected. |

| Some of my friends vote conservative, some of my friends vote liberal (they all vote with their conscience, or they wouldn't be my friends). I vote for my friends. |

| Right now I'm leaning Huckabee. I think he's strong on the issues that I'd like to see our next president be strong on. I agree with his stance on not punishing the children of illegal aliens. I like his view on taxation and the abolishment of the IRS. |

|
| ABOLISH THE IRS! I LIKE THAT! |

| Lets move to Canada with Lara Leger. |

While Lara is a peach. I don't think I could handle the socialized medicine up there. :) |

|
| Do you have a candidate you are leaning towards and if so who? |
|
|
| I've taken a couple of polls (MSNBC's comes to mind) and the result of the first one matched my choices with Huckabee -- which surprised me, so I began reading and listening more to his viewpoints. The other leaders have not yet impressed me, though I had been hoping to hear more from Fred Thompson. Right now, were the election today, Huckabee would be my choice. Still reading , listening and learning, though. Have (most certainly!!) deleted some possibilities from my list. |
|
|
| I'm hearing Huckabee quite a bit on this blog. Do you think he can win? What did you think about Mitt Romney's speech the other day. When he couldn't come out and say that every word in the Bible is true, that said a lot to me. |
|
|
| As a Mormon, he can't say every word in the Bible is true. The Bible has been corrupted by centuries of influence from an apostate church, which required God to raise up the prophet Joseph Smith and make him recipient of the revelation of the other testament of Jesus Christ, etc etc |
|
|
| What do you think about the concept of voting for someone who can do a good job leading our country but they maybe they aren't a Christian? We go to doctors that aren't christians if they can do a good job. It's a new thought for me. I don't want to have to lower our standards but I want your thoughts. |

Hey Jeff, Here is the way our Pastor (Bob Enyart) answers your question, "if a presidential candidate is unwilling to use his authority as President to protect the innocent in our country, he is not qualified to be President of the United States." And here is another shocker. The people that Bush has elected are not pro life, they are pro-choice. Any canidate that votes and approves of any ruling that says, "and then you can kill the child," is not pro-life. So, I refer you back to your blog on abortion. No canidate mentioned above is pro-life they are mostly pro-choice. So don't vote for any of them, just because they are on the ticket. In Denver we are standing with God and backing only one canidate so far... Alan Keyes. Listen to Fridays broadcast with a guest speaker Will Duffy. He begins talking about the canidates a couple minutes into the program. You might find it interesting. http://kgov.com/audio/popup/play/1107 |

| Jeff (and all)--Speaking frankly and practically, I don't think it's a secret or surprise to anyone that the church is full of people who are authentically saved by grace and are moving ahead in their faith and the process of sanctification, who genuinely love Jesus and have a heart for service to the Kingdom of God, but do not have any clear leadership capabilities. Further, the church is full of people who name the name of Jesus but are still scoundrels and boneheads, lacking character and/or basic life skills. The simple fact of someone being a Christian or naming the name of Christ does not necessarily recommend that person to me as first priority in choosing a national leader. There are a host of issues and qualifications that come into play. Of course I would prefer a Christian, but a more qualified non-Christian with a proven track record of honor and integrity whose positions on the key core issues meet with my approval will get my vote. And people with non-political or religious affiliations whose underlying agendas and /or beliefs about mankind's and America's role and future (such as NWO, Freemasonic, and Mormon American Israelism) will remain suspect to me regardless of how good their surface rhetoric sounds. |

| R--From a religious and ideological perspective, Keyes is superb. He is a consistent, erudite and incisive political thinker and constructive social critic. Unfortunately, for those very reasons, coupled with the fact that he is intellectual, black, and conservative, he is un-electable in America in 2007/2008. |
|
|
| I'm for a Huckabee/Hunter ticket. |
|
|
Wyatt-that sounds like a couple of the strongest conservatives. |
