It is an interesting question. Perhaps Protestants sense their own churches surrender in the culture war and have hope that a reservoir of Biblical morality exists among Catholics?

Doesn’t annoy me but if the candidate’s religion is going to be the deciding issue, we deserve to lose.

I’m a Protestant and have no problem with Catholics. They aren’t trying to force Catholic doctrine on me so I really don’t care as long as they’re unapologetic Christians

I don’t care about the religious aspect a tenth as much as I care whether or not the candidate is a genuine American - that is, one who loves and supports our Constitution, our legal heritage and our historic culture and traditions.

As far as religion goes, anything within the sphere of the Judeo-Christian faith is fine. Most pols, however, list their ‘faith’ as a boiler plate part of their political CV.

With the exception of a Muslim candidate (because their religion is PART of their political system)I don't see why the religion or lack thereof of a candidate matters. The President has no power to force his or her religion on anyone. We have a problem with galloping Secular Humanism, but that has come about as result of rulings by the Supremes, and from Congress.

It is the political views, and the character of the candidate that matter the most to me. These standards, and knowing the kind of folks the candidate chooses for advisors, and the kind of person he or she might choose for the Supremes, tells me more about a candidate than what religion the person professes.

I’m glad I’m not as narrow-minded as some people, otherwise the only presidential candidate I could have voted for was Michael Dukakis.

Rick and Newt are Catholic, Mitt is Mormon. The only protestant amongst the bunch in Paul. And he hardly advertises it.

I don’t think older conservative (white) men are much of a voting bloc, so their opinion on Protestant, Catholic, or Mormon probably counts for very little. Best just consider voting for anyone except Obama and forget the details.

As a former RC and now evangelical, i am quite sure it has little to do with the candidates religion, but the quality overall. Although faith does matter a lot, you are not dealing with a monolithic group.

But Santorum’s recent affirmation of the President as being a Christian testifies to his lack of discernment.

Maybe they consider Obama to be a Protestant, and we all know he would be the best one to lead our country...... to HELL

Who cares? As long as they understand that this country and the Constitution and laws of this country are based on Judeo-Christian values and that when they swear on the Bible to uphold that Constitution and the laws of the country, it really means something. Obama can lie to succeed in his goals because his religion (or lack thereof) clearly condones that.

No. It’s about nobody really wanting Romney as the nominee other than Obama’s crowd. Romney is an empty suit. A rich NE liberal politician turned Rino.

I would like President that believes Christians deserve as much freedom of religion and freedom of speech as atheists, abortionists, environmentalists and the like.

Yes, I want a ‘protester’ of Communism, Socialism, Progressive-ism, liberalism, capital-ISM ... UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, ILLEGAL INVASION, anti-Constitution, the amoral, immoral liars, cheats and thieves... Social justice enforcers ....

I don't care what their ‘religious’ mantel so long at they understand that the Creator alone is the giver of unalienable ‘rights’!!!!!

Oh and for those who ‘gasp’ at capital-ISM being listed, remember who bought and paid for this present president. WALL STREET.... $0R0$ led the charge .... it sure was not a capitalist free market election.

Oh, also notice I did NOT include repentant ‘sinners’.

Palin was baptized Catholic.

Get back in the race Gov. Perry, you are head and shoulders better than any candidate in this primary. I like your conservative record, your conservative platform including your economic plan, your states rights beliefs, and other provisions I know of. I don’t give a tinkers damn for remaining big government choices we have before us!! And I don't mind that you are an evangelical protestant Christian.

Well if you feel that way, why did you post it?
