  • GREAT JOB!!!

  • Did you even see the clip I was talking about? By not considering anyone but Huckabee based solely on the fact that he is the candidate that would bring "God into the white house".

    I feel justified in saying that they were "close minded Christians" because they didnt take any other factor into their choice for president. How very Christian of you to so eloquently point out how intolerant and narrow-minded I am, you should check whith your pastor on that one!

  • This professor is dead on with her analysis of the white/black vote in Alabama. In 2008 Obama got only 11% of the white vote in Alabama-wow that is extremely low!!!

  • rate me 1-10 f

  • y I LOVE SEX WHO ELSE IS WITH ME? h

  • Right On the money Video!

  • Yeah, 'cause the two people supporting Paul has been littering B'ham with his fliers. I am a college student, and most of the students think he's a joke.

  • Being that I live 75 miles from Lynchburg and their votes help elect MY representatives to the US govt it IS my business how they vote.

    There is no difference between the two, people who vote only on one factor are ignorant and close minded. Our current administration rode in to office on the backs of the single issue Christian voter and we got stuck with a ballooning deficit and war that we cant win and no one wanted. Religion is private and personal, it has no place in the US government!

  • It's amazing how much anti-religious bigotry there is in America. Anyone else is given a free pass to choose a candidate based on ANYTHING they want, whether it's based on one factor or a hundred different factors. What business is it of yours or anyone else's HOW Christians decide on their candidate of choice? Also, what's the difference between Christians who choose that as a factor and those who would vote AGAINST Huckabee ONLY BECAUSE he's a Christian?

  • This may be the reason why it's called a Ron Paul revolution. Those who support him not only like him but also agree with his views.

  • ha ha ron paul won alabama, take your country back vote ron paul wake up

  • i love America when it comes to race we came along but still we got so far go...
