Now, now, I have a little insight into the voters' black hearts. I know why Kucinich had to drop out. It wasn't because of his unpresidential stature, his very liberal views, or anything of the sort.
So let me ask this one question, America: Are you afraid of having a Catholic as President of the United States?
...
And, joking aside, there is a point where people are afraid to have a president, isn't there? Catholic is pretty much fine today. But Mormon's a little bit sketchy. What about a Jew? A Muslim? A Buddhist? Atheist? Agnostic? Someone who just doesn't have a stance on religion? Some would refuse to vote for her/him because they are not electable. Others would confirm the previous opinion. How far can we go until we've gone too far? Would the moral discrepancy really be that bad? Or would it just be the jarring realization that not everyone feels like they have to fit into the camp of God in order to try.
(One note here... most people are Christian, and so of course most candidates will be Christian. I just find it curious that I can't think of any exceptions at all.)
