Does anyone think there is any other candidate that would be so honest and also so conservative on this issue? If we want to fund goodwill to Africa let us do it through personally charity. What a novel concept. A concept that our founders valued.

Good for Fred! Christ works through the Church, not through the government.

A perfect statement from Fred.

"Does anyone think there is any other candidate that would be so honest and also so conservative on this issue?"

And also so very correct. The man obviously knows his Christianity. I wonder how the Huckster would do on the same question. I'd bet he'd opt for "charity by government fiat".

Fred absolutely nailed this issue with the only proper response, both for a Christian and for a conservative.

I don’t know of any Christian version Bible that tells us to reach in our neighbor’s pocket to satisfy our moral obligations to our fellow men. I don’t know what part of our Constitution gives power to any politician to take money from one citizen and give it to another. Yet, some politicians find it easily.

This left wing hack said "Thompson's questioner got it wrong. Support for the fight against AIDS is not a matter of being a "Christian" or a "conservative" -- or a liberal or a Buddhist. It is an expression of compassion and empathy, which also reflects a serious conception of America's role in the world.

I want to know where that hack's "compssion" is for all the other health problems Fred spelled out in his answer. This guy just didn't like the way Fred wouldn't pander to his pet disease.

Definitely worthy of a Barf Alert, though it did highlight some of the key reasons I’m voting for Fred.

AID’s is a completely preventable disease. Why throw money into Africa for a bunch idiots who take no precautions to avoid the virus. If anything that money would be better spent here for something like cancer research that can catch anyone off guard.

It does not get any better than this.

Fred gets it.
Now, will the voters?

We can’t let them chase Fred out of the race. He’s got the right message and it’s going to defeat the rest.

In a 2007 interview Gerson revealed that his childhood political hero was Jimmy Carter, and he went on to say that if it wasn't for the issue of abortion he'd likely have remained what Gerson calls a "Bob Casey" Democrat.
...
Gerson was named by Time as one of "The 25 Most Influential Evangelicals In America" in the magazine's February 7, 2005 issue of the magazine, listing Gerson as the ninth most influential.
...
Gerson joined the Bush campaign before 2000 as a speechwriter and went on to head the White House speechwriting team.

Gerson is a "compassionate conservative". He believes that government should do God's work, with your tax dollars serving as a tithe.

Government is his church.
