I've followed his career since he hit the senate. He does claim it's the bible and constitution that drives his decisions. He says that over and over and over. Just ask him. He's the only one that follows the bible and the constitution. It's his shtick. He's a self centered POS and has a relatively small group of people bamboozled. He's feeding their beast. He is smart though.

I don't care if he is self centered or mean (see obama) as long as he gets the economy back on track, follows the constitution and keeps us safe.

If you are a fan of small government there aren't many choices on either side that fit the bill.

Cristian doesn't equate to zealot in my mind nor is it a dirty word. I am a proud Christian who actively practices my faith.

I am wary of anyone who repeatedly proclaims the self holier than thou because usually the turn out not to be. He is neither more of a constitutionalist or better Christian than many of the people he derides.

In my opinion he is a snake oil salesman and a charlatan.

I also believe he is running perhaps the least Christian campaign of all of them right before our very eyes.

As an atheist I will never vote for a candidate who states he's making decisions about our laws based on a Bible. That's what gets us Sharia law. Doesn't matter if the decision he comes to is one I agree with or not, if his decision making is based on the Bible he's one Bible passage away from deciding I need to be stoned to death.

A politician can be religious. Most have been. But to say you're using some random religion to guide your decisions is not acceptable to me. Would you want a candidate who said they consult the Koran when making political decisions?

Hey, Victor. An atheist, a vegan and a crossfitter all walk into a bar. I only know cause they told everybody within a minute....

IF, that's a big IF, a candidate actually follows the Bible (Carson, perhaps? Huckabee?), you could NEVER get sharia law. You got that a little twisted, Victor. The Bible is NOT the Kuran. The Bible teaches forgiveness and grace, not "kill the infidel"

Knowing Victor...what he's saying is he's not going to follow some blind idiot devoted to his faith with running a nation.

While I believe it's a great thing to have in one's arsenal of Life to believe that you're chosen or have to prove to the world your God is great is sheer lunacy. This is EXACTLY what Cruz and his wife are espousing.

Its a good thing Lincoln didn't follow your example as the Bible was one of the few books he had growing up and read multiple times and relied on when making decisions.. oh and he prayed about making the correct decisions as the President too.

And this "random religion" was used as a basis for the Dec of Independence and the Constitution. Congressional meetings were opened with prayer ( I am guessing for prudent guidance).

Stoning to death is done by Muslims, not Christians.
