The constitution does not support the separation of church and state. If a church wants to bus people to the polls or if a pastor wants to endorse a person or party, they are free to do so under our constitution. Unfortunately, the constitution is ignored or bastardized far too often.

Prior to 1954, churches and non-profits had no restrictions on their freedom of speech or their right to speak out in favor or against political issues or candidates.

I believe H.R. 2357 was that law that punished 'political' speech and activity in churches.
