Just explain, how one can pledge with their
church to be part of: A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA,
Then also take an oath as there President of The USA?
Which comes first the chicken or the egg?
I honestly do not get it.

Have to go out for a while, will check back later for comments of explanation.

9. So in other words, you can't explain it? If I can't understand how
one can have already committed to another country through their church, how will he explain it to the Republicans? I don't think your childish responses to this post will work for him in a general election. Now if anyone wants to have a civil discussion and answer my question feel free. What happens if at some time in the future our country finds itself at odds with Africa? I know that is unlikely but stranger things have happened. What would your candidate do in such an instance?

If you have no logical answer, fell free to keep acting childish in your responses.

10. Well first of all Africa Is not another country

Second, I would say that the commitment is to his brothers and sisters in that church and not to any physical place.

14. My church (catholic) thinks abortion is murder. I'm pro-choice.
...see how easy it is?


Just a little history, Little Star. the whispering campaign against John Kennedy in 1960 was VERY similar to this.... how could he be in a religion that considers the Pope "infallible", but yet have the U.S.'s best interests at heart?


We know your game. It didn't work in 1960, and it won't work now.

15. Remeber, you're supposed to post this in the context of a comment on the implications of it
like, Wow, those damn freepers will make a lot of this! That way, you can't be accused of trying to smear Obama.
