Nowhere in the three-year ministry of Jesus Christ did I find a suggestion at all, ever, anywhere, in any way whatsover, that you ought to take the money from the poor, the opportunities from the poor and give them to the rich people

Nor did Jesus ever say that the rich should be taxed to death, or that the government should try to redistribute wealth.

You hit that one on the head.

Kerry is a slime for even trying to use that as a suggestion.

In fact, he renounced the job in Luke 12:13-15

13Someone in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me." 14Jesus replied, "Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?" 15Then he said to them, "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions."
