ITT: An awful lot of pearl clutching from people I don't trust are american.
And just like that, Republicans wanted separation of Church and State. >

Fine with me if that’s what it takes. >

Based comment. Morality is not a religion it’s a sense of values. Vote based on morality and political records not religion and charisma. >

Happy early MLK day, when Republicans will quote the but from MLK's "I have a dream" speech about how the Declaration of Independence was a promissory note that made every man equal...
...and when Republicans will deliberately omit the very next line about how the US wrote a bad check in terms of equality for African Americans >

I expect the "not the color of their skin but the content of their character" quote about 1000x tomorrow. >

Indeed. Heard someone say in an interview he tends to get sanitized and romanticized and frozen in place in those moments when his rhetoric is about equality  and less about the nitty gritty of how African Americans had to fight for it against systemic racial oppression. >

And don’t forget they completely eliminate any mention of his Socialism or class consciousness. >


And don’t forget they completely eliminate any mention of his Socialism or class consciousness.

Tbf, the opposite is true from people who want to reduce everything down to economic class and then desperately scream about how they got cheated in primaries.
Race is important, economics is important, telling people their concerns over racism are irrelevant and that they need to focus on economics is a great way to lose their vote. >

What candidates are you referring to? I've seen the odd leftist online who insists that there is no conflict but class conflict but most any left leaning individual I've ever met or seen run agrees at the very least that both axes of oppression exist and play a role in people's lives. >

Bernie Sanders. Not that he ever specifically said that, but his supporters would often tell minorities who were hesitant to support him that racism isn't a thing, it's just economics. And then they got angry that minorities weren't flocking to that message. >

Yea, not something Bernie said, also not something he really pushed more his fans. Also not something he really pushed back on. As a single spectrum candidate though sticking to message did help divert Biden and other candidates far more left and his issues got more notice which is good.
I generally consider Bernie's 2020 run a big success. I think anyone wanting to run on the same general concept is going to have to stop pretending to be race blind and that it's not a significant factor. >

Just a reminder that Evangelical "Christians" voted for a guy that hasn't been to church is years over one that goes every Sunday. >

They voted for hershel walker too who paid for several abortions, abandoned his kids and assaulted his wife. >

and that was instead of the actual pastor of MLK’s church. >

Remember when hey found out Obama went to church all the time,  so they had to attack the pastor at that church instead of attacking Obama for a change? 
Good times >

I can already see tuckers fart face. Is Biden racist? Why has he not done a sermon for white people? >

I read that in his voice and now I’m annoyed >

I would have thought Trump would have been the first what with his strong religious convictions. >

Agreed.  After all, the verse he values the most is the first rule:

Once you have their money, you never give it back. >

Is that two Corinthians? >

Rules of Acquisition >

It should've been Trump.
"You black people are great. A real terrific people. That whole Civil rights thing was quite something. I probably wouldn't have done it, but that's just me. But something made you guys determined to do that for some reason. Maybe you and I are alike after all. I knew had to make this country great by becoming your president. And hopefully you voted for me. Because if you didn't, well, I wouldn't be too pleased. Ivanka once dated a black guy. He was something. Tiffany was surprised. I told her, 'No. It's just a phase.' And it was you know. Ivanka married a Jew instead. What can you do? " >

6/10, Way too coherent. >

I imagined it to be a prepared speech. >

look, I would've done a way better Sermon because I'm way better at Speaking and at being Presidential than Sleepy Joe.  they said there's never been a President like President Trump, so true, I came in, we had no Military, I said what happened, "I hate to tell you this Sir but it's Obama, he sold all of our Army Tanks to China," and I said oh just beautiful, here we are doing things so nicely under Trump but anytime you look at the Democrats you can see they're killing our Country and killing our Constitution, our Beautiful Constitution, and nobody's done more to protect it than I have.  no one.  and I just had it just the other day, I was doing an incredible round of Golf, one of my best games ever, extremely under Par, we're talking almost zero, and all of a sudden here comes this Big Strong Man, very good looking, we're talking even better looking than Richard Gere, and I look and I see he's got tears in his eyes, "thank you Sir, thank you for saving my Pension and for saving us from the Evil Democrats," and I said it's not a problem, not a problem.  you know we never had any problems for 4 Years, I gave you all 4 Years of Peace and Beauty and you look at the Radical Left and all they have is Death and Taxes, it's a real shame what they've done to our Country.  and we're gonna be doing a lot, I'm doing a lot of things, 2024, we're looking at it very strongly.  we'll see what happens.  ok, you're welcome, you can thank me now or thank me later, whatever you want, and they say that I'm too nice sometimes, that's probably true. >

Thank you for your John Mulaney reference of an account >

and they said to me, "thank you Sir for being even more incredible than someone who has a very high waist," you could say he's a very High Waisted Man, which is something that I just came up with, and I can already tell the Radical Left Fake News doesn't wanna even talk about it.  and I hate to say it but i have to say it, he has Feminine Hips, it's a real problem.  but as long as you have President Trump then you have no problems.  ok, have a beautiful time, no one's stronger remember that, you're welcome. >

But where were you when Johnny got pushed off the swing? >

Overall, I am pretty cool with this. As long as Christianity isnt pressed down to his staff or others. With that said, some of these comments are pretty wild.
Doesn't Biden have the freedom to express his Religion and Freedom of Speech?
I mean sure if you disagree with his views, sure we can all agree to disagree on how we view the world and religion but, let's not get overly hostile over this.
How would we react if we had a Jewish president starts celebrating Hanukkah, a Buddhist reading out the Dharma, or a Hinduist practicing Bhakti? >

Being honest I would be totally fine with a rule barring any sitting member of government from any public expression of religion. They can do that in private or while they’re not an elected figure. If their religion is so important to them that they can’t keep it private while in office they probably shouldn’t be in office making rules for a country full of people that believe in other religions or no religion at all. 
Of course in reality if such a rule got passed they would try and argue that Christian religious expressions are just normal and not religious and only try to stop non Christian’s from expressing their beliefs.
