As part of a broad national security plan to defeat ISIS, Republican Presidential candidate John Kasich proposed creating a new government agency to push Judeo-Christian values around the world.
The new agency, which he hasn't yet named, would promote a Jewish- and Christian-based belief system to four regions of the world: China, Iran, Russia and the Middle East.
"We need to beam messages around the world" about the freedoms Americans enjoy, Kasich said in an interview with NBC News Tuesday. "It means freedom, it means opportunity, it means respect for women, it means freedom to gather, it means so many things."
He defended creating a new government agency at a time when fellow Republican presidential candidates discuss eliminating government agencies to making the government smaller.
"There's nobody who's spent more time shrinking government and cutting budgets than I have," Kasich, the former head of the House Budget Committee said, adding that not all government programs are equal.

Mr. Kasich, please go where no one can find you ever again, and never leave that place.
Gosh, this guy is amazing. Another gummint agency.
I’ll laugh.
Great another agency that will grow into mammoth bureaucracy. We don’t need no other stinking agency. Big Government Rino!
May I join you in the laughter?
Except in Waco
Now finally we have an explicit ‘Separation of Church and State’ issue.
What happened to separation of church and state??
Sounds like the state sponsored churches that predominate in communist dictatorships.
Repurpose the dept of edumacation.
Ugh!
“We need to beam messages around the world”
Um, kinda like TBN and Pat Robertson and hundreds of other TV evangelists.
Dood is WEIRD!
How about we leave something for God’s people to do. Sheeesh!
WTFFF?
Howabout eliminating welfare?
Think the illegal mezicans would run back home?
Another one????????
Unreal.
Well, I do nto know, especially considering that separation of church and state does not actually exist.
However, such a department as envisioned by the likes of John Kasich and administered by the Beast of Hell known as the US federal Government is just about the scariest thing I have ever even thought of in my entire life.
Like, seriously, put my hands up in the air and run through a bunch of walls leaving a perfect hole in the likeness of my silhouette type of scary.
Kasich is taking Stupid lessons from Jebbie.
