Would Christians elect a Jew president? After all the Jews murdered Christ. Correct?

If a Jewish candidate were the most qualified and had a record of upholding principles and values consistent with conservativism, you can bet your bottom dollar I'd vote for him.

And it wasn't the Jews who murdered Christ, it was everyone. I don't buy into that scapegoating crap.

I believe the Bible says in the Old Testament that "He was smitten of God." Maybe Isaish?

Well lets check our history, shall we. While some Jews argued for the death of Christ, many others argued against it. Most of his closest supporters were Jews.

In fact the group that killed Jesus was the Government of the day, the Roman Empire. The order for the murder was given by Pontious Pilate, who had the power to set him free and chose not to. The order was carried out by the Roman Legionaires, acting in the role of police. It is much more say that Christ was killed by a thoughtless Federal big government unconcerned with truth or fairness than by "everybody". At the time my distant anscestors were living as illiterate tribes in far nothern Europe. They had (historicly speaking) no involvment with his death, nor did the Chinese, Indians, American Indians, pre-Moslem Arab tribes, Africans or many others.

Rome did the deed.
