Barack Obama and John McCain's Hail Mary to Evangelical Voters
Tomorrow both presidential candidates head to Orange County, California, for one-on-one interviews with evangelical megapreacher Rick Warren at his 22,000-member megachurch.
It's shaping up to be a thoughtful, unbiased discussion of current events…
The men will be asked about their position on abortion, gay marriage, stem cell research, the AIDS crisis, the environment and a number of other key issues important to voters…
"I'm going to ask them about abortion. I am going to ask them about the definition of marriage," [Warren] said. "I intend to ask the tough questions, but I am going to ask them in a civil way."
And he plans to ask both of them about Jesus Christ.
"I'm certainly going to ask a question about Jesus Christ in this forum," he told CBN News. "No doubt about it."
And as long as they're right there at a church and all…
Warren also will ask the candidates about their faith because "personal faith is your worldview and that determines how you will lead," [Warren's spokesman Larry] Ross said. "He doesn't think you can separate faith from politics."
No, I don't think you can. Isn't that in the Constitution somewhere?
