Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said on Saturday that he doesn’t know whether President Obama is a Christian, repeating a response that sparked a firestorm months ago.
“I don’t know,” the 2016 Republican presidential candidate said at the biannual Koch brothers donor network conference in Dana Point, Calif., according to Time magazine, when asked whether he has tried to find out.
“I presume he is,” he added. …

Your first sentence is depressing. It also rings true.
You’ll know them by their fruits. He can’t even stand up to a question like this, how is he going to stand up to anything tough?
Best answer.
Excellent summation.
No, because that gives credence to a loaded question and validates the left’s interpretation of “religious test”, the correct interpretation thereof being in the context of the Establishment Clause.
Someone as obsessed with murdering the unborn as 0bama is NOT a believer in Christ.
Any other reply would be an argument against the reporter’s question. Then they would write that I disagreed there is no religious test, and quote me accurately. My answer agrees with the reporter’s perspective, validates it, and then calls him a bigot for asking the question. He can’t disagree with anything I said, so he then ignores my reply, and doesn’t follow up. The question goes away.
Walker, running for presidential nomination, doest know? Yet little old me, one of “we the people” can look at this man, and discern from his words and actions, that he is not? Walker lost my interest a while back. If this is the type of answer we can expect from him on a subject that doesn’t matter at this point; what is he going to say on tough, relevant questions?
The correct answer to that goofy question from Obonzo’s “media” is, I don’t know if the Kenyan is a Christian or not but he sure doesn’t act like one.
He did stand up to it by treating it as a stupid irrelevant question.
1. Obama is not going to be in office much longer no matter what his religion is or what Walker’s answer to the stupid question is.
2. Obama’s religion has nothing whatsoever to do with Walker’s campaign.
3. It is not the job of a President to pass judgment on whether an individual is a Christian or not a Christian. It’s not in the job description.
So I’m happy with Walker’s response. And I would hope the media stop asking this stupid idiotic question.
“I don’t know about that, but the boy is as queer as a three dollar bill in a Chicago bathhouse”
He's lying. Any Christian would have to know that Obama is not a Christian by any definition of the term.
I don't know why these guys try to skirt this.
They should just respond either by saying "no" and then responding to the firestorm or just say "I don't know what religion he is. You'll have to ask him."
Since it’s a loaded question, then pointing that out and castigating the reporter for being so journalistically delinquent as to ask one should have been the sole response.
when asked whether he has tried to find out.
Possible correct answer: “Why should I care?”
Also Muslim is not Christian Scotty! If one extracts ones head from ones butt you can look around and know what’s going on in the BIG WORLD. Very small man doing a small job!
I would love to hear a candidate say that.
Another good answer is: I think it’s politically expedient right for him to be a Christian so that’s what he calls himself....sometimes.
The same Press that worries so much that Obama “gets credit” for being a Christian also hopes like hell that he isn’t “burdened with such nonsense”....
I walker doesn’t know this he has no business seeking the Presidency.
You can hope Obama just steps out, at this point, nothing will surprise me.
