I don't know enough about Opus Dei or how Brownback might be influenced by it, if his views have changed.

I read an intimate interview regarding Israel he did years ago- before his conversion- and my feeling was that his strong Christian Zionist beliefs would be the most pro-Israel.

In any event he can't win. He's not a player for the top spot.

I've been curious after your posts.

Brownback converted in 2002.

In 2004, he received an award from ZOA.

In 2006, he addressed the meeting of the new organization Christians United for Israel.

It doesn't look like his views towards Israel have changed.

If they haven't, of those mentioned I believe he does remain the most Pro- Israel candidate.

Speech to Knesset

He still won't be elected President.
