>>Huh? Someone please explain this nonsense to me.<<

It’s easy. A lot of born again Christians are black. All humans are racist to some degree or another. A lot of blacks are voting for him because he is black and really pretty ignorant of all the things we discuss here.

A similar thing happened with white people regarding Jimmy Carter. It wasn’t racial in that case, but the simple fact that he was the “Christian” candidate was enough for them. I was accutely aware of it because I was NOT a Christian at the time and then became one. I was dumbfounded by my “conservative” friends support of him over Reagan until I remembered the Christian connection.

Race is very real in this election, even to those that won’t admit it to themselves.

Not in California. White evangelical Christians are voting for Obama. They are into the environment. They are against the war in Iraq.

These are people that have their kids in private school, and McCain supports vouchers. These are people who homeschool, and McCain supports homeschoolers.

McCain is not that different when it comes to the environment then Obama. McCain supports the whole global warming scam.

I know they also believe that Obama is going to tax the rich. I don’t know how that is Christian.

I don’t get it.

I was a young ignorant Christian back in the Carter days and I voted for him. In those days, however, you didn’t hear the truth about candidates like you do now. The media protected them. He SOUNDED very good to many of us.
