Frankly the media is, if not totally afraid, at least reluctant, to really press on the real issues of entertaini
ng Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann for president. It's their affiliations and with evangelical groups of many descriptions that bohers me.
The constitution prohibits any religious test for holding office. It does not prohibit the examination of ones beliefs who is running for office. These two start every speech with allegiance to God.
I remember when Jack Kennedy made his statement that, his holding of office would not be influenced by any papal decree, but only his adherence to defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States of America.
Would Rick Perry and or Michele Bachmann so declare their allegiance is to the same constitution and not to their view of establishing the Kingdom of God for the return of Jesus. And do so publicly. Will the press ask this pertinent question?
These are scary times we're living in. And the fact that Michelle Bachmann is considered Presidential material by ANYONE - including Michelle Bachmann!!! - is proof positive of just HOW scary these times are. Don't even get me started in Rick Perry !
