I hate pandering.

Never mind that church and state should be separate.

Republicans go to RW fundagelical churches. It's kind of hypocritical to talk about GOPers going to those churches when Democrats are having rallies in black churches, which share many of the same beliefs as their white counterparts. Churches seem to be the most effective places to reach black voters, however, so I don't think they're going to stop it anytime soon.
