56. Back in 1960 Kennedy addressed a bunch of
mostly Baptist Texas preachers to assure them that he would not let his religion influence his Presidency. Today the candidates sit before some evangelical snake oil salesman in a megachurch operated on the theological principle of "he who greases the pastor's palm will be most favored" and have to answer a bunch of questions in such a way to convince one segment of the electorate that their Presidency will be guided by their religious beliefs. What the hell ever happened to separation of church and state? Obama should never have agreed to participate in this charade.
