The Candidates should be focused on getting some good Vice Presidents. There is a weekly 2008 Vice President poll at http://www.votenic.com , the one and only 2008 Presidential Election Weekly Poll. See who America thinks should back the candidates. New "Undecided" Option.

I am still having trouble with Obama and his faith. Why would a man who is highly respected like Dr. James Dobson accuse Obama of, "deliberately distorting the traditional understanding of the Bible to fit his own world view, his own confused theology" if it was not true? Obama talks about a lot about change, but the only thing that he has changed is his position on issues. I thought he was a new kind of politician? Chuck Hasker

He is the perfect political candidate desguising his beliefs. Obama is so vague that we do not know what he stands for. Maybe he does have beliefs consistent with middle America? He is playing politics so well we do not know. He thinks he can get elected on his looks and charm and he may be correct. Why spill the beans on his beliefs if it may turn a vote for McCain? He is not playing his hand and saving his resources. If McCain does not make him show his hand, Obama will win. Based off his short voting record that could be a turn to the left for the US which is the last thing a stagnant economy needs. Remember Jimmy Carter?? www.conservativeoutcomes.com

A Christian is a follower of Christ. As Christians, we are instructed to know our fellow Christians by their "fruit". Saying you are a Christian, because you've made a decision, or a hamburger, when you don't taste like one, isn't a true test. So, does the fruit of his life, his choices, reflect a follower of Christ? I don't believe his stance on aborton reflects that of a follower of Christ. These are his words after the ban on partial birth abortions:

"I strongly disagree with today's Supreme Court ruling, which dramatically departs from previous precedents safeguarding the health of pregnant women. As Justice Ginsburg emphasized in her dissenting opinion, this ruling signals an alarming willingness on the part of the conservative majority to disregard its prior rulings respecting a woman's medical concerns and the very personal decisions between a doctor and patient. I am extremely concerned that this ruling will embolden state legislatures to enact further measures to restrict a woman's right to choose, and that the conservative Supreme Court justices will look for other opportunities to erode Roe v. Wade, which is established federal law and a matter of equal rights for women."

As a Christian, I cannot stand before God, having supported someone whose very words show that he is a supporter of the death of babies. I know he has tried to soften these statements, but here they are, in his own recorded words.
