I’d take an Atheist who understood that the Constitution is the central document and not to be messed with over the Huckster anyday. I know a couple of Atheists who reverence the Constitution because it is balanced and it works. They are also business owners who understand the economy.
I trust no wanna be theocrat, regardless of how their stated religious beliefs align with mine if they don’t first and foremost respect the separation of powers and the limited role of government.
Church and state should be divorced enough that the beliefs, or lack thereof, of the POTUS should make no difference in policy whatsoever.
I don’t think a belief in the divine is necessary to believing that the founding fathers got it pretty much right in designing a government, anymore than one must be a Baptist, Catholic or Jew to appreciate and use a Shelby Cobra, F-15 or Ma Deuce
How many atheists understand that? Especially in light of the fact that the Constitution was indeed made only for moral and religious people, as Adams said.
I do not claim that Huckabee is Christian.
And there are no “wannabe theocrats” in the USA; that’s a liberal scare tactic.
You got it right!
