Presidential Vote

[Catsmeow]

If you chose to "write in a candidate", who would you write in?

Would current events of today inspire your vote?

Would your vote be based on historical political voting record or civic involvement?

Would your vote be affected by quotations made by a candidate or the person you write in for?

Bush. Kerry scares the pants offa' me.

I'm doing what I always do each election year...I'm writing in my vote.

I always do the same thing year after year...I write in the name of Jesus Christ.

People say it's a wasted vote but you can bet the angels in heaven clap and cheer.

I know my Father in heaven reads the ballot when I vote for His Son.

See, I remember how in the book of Judges the people wanted a King; God wasn't too happy about that because HE was their King. Still, they wanted a human being to be their king, so God gave them Saul.

Seems to me whenever we put a man in office, things go from bad to worse. I'm not doggin' on Bush. *(I'll remain silent on Clinton, however).

I AM saying that I want Jesus Christ to rule and reign on earth. I want HIM to lead our people. I want "His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven."

Nobody I know that's human can even begin to compare to His knowledge and wisdom.

So, maybe my meager little vote won't "count" among men, but I'm only concerned about what God considers a valid vote.

I beleive God validates my vote on the rolls of heaven and knows that I have elected Him the King of our land and Lord of my life.

Just my 2 cents...

To write in a vote or just not vote could help Kerry win, so I'll vote for Bush.

Kerry scares the pants off'a me too.

LOL! Yeah, I know...and that's a good point. But I've always made a point to vote for the King of Kings...I know His will shall be done and I will stand by it.

Praise be to God, our Lord and Creator!

Greetings All,

The Clinton election proved to me that when good men do nothing, they allow the enemy to come in like a flood. Though I may not be an avid Bush supporter, He is far better than who might come in second. It's too bad that a vote for Jesus is a vote for the loser in this world. It's too bad that Christians can't come to one mind on this.

Blessings,

Dad Ernie

My reasoning is three fold, one George likes war, two George help the rich, and leaves the poor out to dry, three the gays are going to be around anyway, we can not kill them, or make them stop doing their sins, yet we may try to stop them from being evil, but we already try, and that has not stopped them, certainly I do not want them to even have civil marriage, but I think war, and the other outweigh the gay issue. I would rather have God's judgement upon American, by doing righteousness in those two areas, then by doing evil which will destroy the spirit, soul, and body. Remember Christ came not to send peace but a sword, He wants His kingdom established, and if evil rules, God will destroy, yet God will preserve, what is right, and good.

allfor, you seem to forget that God instructed His people into war throughout history... and Jesus didn't come to wipe out war. the new testament clearly gives the GOVERNMENT the authority to determine if war is necessary, and to engage in it. he didn't call us (or anyone) to sit idly by in pacifist mode and get slaughtered by terrorists who fly jets into our pentagon, and our WTC buildings. he also didn't call us to sit and twiddle our thumbs while thousands of innocents in other countries are slaughtered. if that's what you're reading in the Bible, you're not reading the entire thing in context.

your comment about bush helps the rich is just plain.... well i'll use a word that was targeted at me yesterday... naive. you don't have a clear understanding of how economics work. personally, i found it extremely helpful for bush to send me an additional tax rebate during his first year, and an advance on my return for the following year. it was money that was desparately needed. his tax cut plan has helped the little people, not just the rich folks. but i'm not stupid. i know that behind ever paycheck we ever get stands a rich person.... and when that rich person is getting ripped off by our government, us poor folks are the ones that suffer.

the homosexuality issue, yes, gays are going to be around. that doesn't mean that something can't be done NOW to prevent legal sanctioning of it. that, to me, is a very high priority, and should be for everyone here.

I vote The Constitution Party in each and every election. The R and D parties are both so corrupted and led by the same Establishment agenda that it really doesn't matter which one wins... the same Establishment plan will still advance.

For those of you who think George W is what he claims to be, here is an interesting read for you.

And BTW, voting for Jesus is ironic seeing that Jesus wouldn't allow Himself to be put on the ballot.

And, regarding Bush... he may not be as on your side as you think when it comes to the gay agenda. Here is an excerpt from the article linked above:

"Gay" Friendly?

Following the 1994 election, Governor Bush pledged that he would veto any legislation that sought to repeal his state
