"In 1960, there was much debate about President John F. Kennedy's faith and what role Catholicism would play in his administration. At that time, he pledged to address the issues of conscience out of a focus on the national interests, not out of adherence to the dictates of one's religion. . . . My question is: Do you?"

Article VI, Clause 3:
The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

'Nuff said.

We cannot have any Catholic holding any public office. The Pope is who the Catholics pledge homage too, not the USA. This Nation is being overrun by Catholics. We need to stop all immigration of these Catholics, they will ruin the nation. Catholics are bad.

Diane Feinstein displays her superb legal understanding. These gun-grabbing, whining, lying, mental patients are always coming around so concerned about their rights, but they don't give a damn about the basic rights plainly enumerated in the constitution. Since the fall of the Soviet Union the domestic Communists have been coming out of the woodwork.

I e-mailed the two SINators with a cut and paste of Article VI, Clause 3. I also offered to send them a copy of the Constitution if they needed it.

Their reply? ... I don't live in their states.
