Evangelicals and 95% of Christians wouldn’t vote for Jesus Christ himself if he ran as a Democrat. Stop telling me that Roy Cooper had to say he prayed to God about our government to get their votes. Your excuse is as blind as your faith.

This complaint is why the DNC sees Trump voters as more gettable than far left 'voters'.

Trump voters? There may be a few on the margins but most likely not enough to sway an election. Most of them would rather be attacked by a swarm of locusts than vote for a Dem.

That's just stupid. 95%? I consider myself agnostic, but I know that there are PLENTY of practicing Christians who routinely vote Dem. Statements like this do nothing but insult religious people and highlight your own prejudice.

I agree with you, 1000%. It should be irrelevant. But being from NC, my friend, Cooper’s faith is attractive to the base of faux evangelicals that are riddled throughout the state. That being said, if it gets him into the Senate.. I’ll stand down. He would be a terrific senator for NC.

Me neither. Other than the fact that historically Christians have done some awful things and the Bible is construct in away to support almost any "moral" position is you choose the appropriate passages. But that usually relies largely on the old testament.

Should a candidate cater to any demographic? Or should they appeal to them by learning about what's important to them and speaking about how their plans around these things? There are very real concerns around the integrity of the midterms. Please check into that so our voices can simply be heard.

I'm an atheist, but having a more Christ-like form of Christianity hurts no one. A progressive Christian movement in this country isn't a terrible thing. And if he truly is as Christian as he seems to be, I don't think he's being insincere.

If he ran as a Republican they wouldn't vote for Jesus Christ because he's an unmarried, brown skinned, Middle Eastern carpenter who is pro-immigrant, anti-war and for Social Safety programs, like healing the sick and feeding the hungry. Hell, they'd sick ICE on Him and have him deported.

25% of the US population claim to be Evangelicals. That's 50% of GOP voters. If they followed Christian dogma, voted for helping the disadvantaged, Dems would win every election. But because Evangelicals are the most gullible people in the US, embedded money's propaganda will always be effective.
