So with respect to this 'person' who wants to turn his back on the flag and misuse his office in order to make political statements, if the local community wants to vote him out then let it be so. If that local community wishes to establish Christianity as their religion of choice then that is okay too.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. And you'd be ok with penalties for not sharing in the community relgion? Sorry, not on board, won't come on board, not my party.

What penalties? Did I say 'penalties' anywhere?

And what gives you the right to dictate how a community of amish people will live their lives? What gives me the right to tell the city of Los Angeles that they must remove the cross from their city seal? If the ACLU decides that all religion must be expunged from the public square, I guarantee it will use the federal government to enforce that tyranny.

We MUST return control of the local communities to the local communities. We MUST return control of the states to the states. Those right not SPECIFICALLY enumerated within the constitution must be granted to the States and the Individual respectively. Specifically does not mean 'prenumberances' either.
