A President doesn’t have to be a full-fledged evangelical to be open to our concerns. Who do you think we’ll have better access to? Hillary or Donald? I am impressed by Trumps judiciary list and his willingness to take political correctness head on. I do pray that he will access our Father in Heaven and that he will humble himself before the task.

I still haven't quite gotten over how Dobson sandbagged Fred Thompson last time—as if McCain is a "better" Christian? More loyal to Republican principles? We see how that turned out. Dobson is a very judgmental guy. Hope he learned his lesson.

Trump probably loses to Hilary when it comes to faking the “correct” accent when speaking to a black church for those who value the accent.

No ways!

Dobson came out strongly for Cruz along with the others. This tells me they are easily swayed. I’d like to see them full square behind Trump. Unconditional.

If they need any more reason to choose between Trump and the wayward democrats/Hillary, they are the ones who desperately need to do some soul searching.

Truth of the day.

Also since you called them Johnny come lately. This smells to me and the reason is that Ralph Reed attended a Bilderberger Meeting a few years ago. What “Christian” attends a meeting to destroy the sovereignty of our great nation?

I’m still smarting over his endorsement of Cruz

Where was his discernment?

What we DO need is a POTUS that is respectful toward all religions

No we need a President that knows Islam is not a religion, peaceful or otherwise.

Test His Faith, Values

Quite the misleading headline...

The article says nothing about his faith being tested...

"Our goal is to be able to have a conversation that could lead to a better understanding of what Donald Trump has to offer to the country,"

"There is no preconceived outcome here," Perkins added. "I'm hoping we can have a conversation that could lead to helping conservative leaders make a decision about what to do in this election."

While that above is true I intended to post that your claim that Trump has said many time he is not a Christian, is a lie.

Why do I think the Cruzlims are behind this?

...because you have Cruz Derangement Syndrome...
