As my son put it, Trump says what he wants to say.\u00a0 Sanders says what he means to say<\/a>.\u00a0 This isn\u2019t an endorsement of Sanders, BTW.\u00a0 I cannot \u2013 I will not \u2013 endorse a politician who is part of a party that has embraced a movement dedicated to my elimination.\u00a0 Liberalism, as it is commonly known, is allied with one of the great heresies of the ages, one that sports blasphemy, debauchery, apathy, narcissism and tyranny as its end game.\u00a0 That\u2019s not to say the GOP is God\u2019s party.\u00a0 It isn\u2019t.\u00a0 It never has been.\u00a0 When I was a Protestant minister, I was hard pressed to find many colleagues who didn\u2019t view the GOP, and Conservatism in general, as a force that was simply less hostile to the Faith and its beliefs. Not that it wasn\u2019t hostile.\u00a0 It simply was less so.<\/p>\n

But Trump and, to a lesser extent, Cruz?\u00a0Hillary\u2019s only hope is for them to get the nomination, and that\u2019s saying something.\u00a0 \u00a0As I\u2019m seeing more and more, the legacy of Obama is Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.\u00a0 A radical left of left socialist, and a demagogue who taps into the worst stereotypes of those he says he wishes to represent.\u00a0 2016 should be interesting. <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
