You probably think that question is some kind of joke. But it's not. I seriously want to know the answer. Why you ask? Well, let me tell you why. Eighteen years ago...ONLY 18 years ago...every last Christian conservative I know of maintained that Bill Clinton was unfit to lead the United States. The reason had nothing to do with his being accused of obstruction of justice nor his being accused of perjury. Those are certainly major accusations to make against any ruler. But again, that's not it. Based on his moral character alone - nothing else - every Christian conservative I knew felt Bill Clinton was unfit to lead. Because Bill seemingly had an affair with an intern - an affair he was unwilling to admit to - Christians everywhere were outspoken critics of his. Did I mention that was only 18 years ago???! You'd think it was a century ago based on what I am seeing today.

Were we wrong about Bill Clinton? I don't know. Certainly, when I look at myself I cannot claim any form of moral superiority. At the same time, I must agree with the argument that it is every citizen's duty to vote for the best candidate for any given office. There is no fig leaf to hide behind. It is disingenuous to suggest that a vote for A is a vote against B.

While I a Christian and have read all you wrote about Donald Trump, do you see anything wrong with what you just did?
