Original Post by fitnessgirll: Do you still not understand that he is FORCED to say those things or give up his career? If he were to come out and say he wasn't religious, support for him would drop like a stone...he would NEVER get re-elected and would even have trouble elsewhere. If he didn't play the religious card when going after something like president...well...there would be absolutely no reason to even try... he would be finished before he started. It's either "tell the people what they want to hear" or "goodbye, go home". Welcome to politics. You are such a trusting person haha. |

Original Post by jenniferthepennifer: Currently, that is the ONLY way to become president. You MUST be a christian in the eyes of the public. Are people seriously saying that they don't believe any president is smart enough to play the religion card just to get more votes?....uuhhh... have people even heard of politics? Everything from the TIE THEY WEAR to the words they use is specially picked and designed to manipulate the public. Religion is a MAJOR issue, which is why they need photo ops at churches and things like that...so the public can "see" they are religious. Obama seems like a smart fellow. I just don't see him being very religious (if at all). He is smart though, so he would never admit that (it would ruin his career). |
