There are going to be a lot of write-in votes this election, eh?

I do not need to do this. I am voting for one of His followers and chosen representatives on Earth over the follower of a false prophet and false church and his atheist-worshipping running mate.

Obama has a ceiling of around 40% in the deep South. Tongue

Yeah and the chance of it really happening is about the same as opebo converting to Christianity.

Wait, I thought that was a post by some random Republican election troll. That was a BRTD post?

I think we need to see this Jesus Christ's birth certificate - I'm pretty sure he wasn't born here.

I remember hearing about this a few months ago. Count me in the skeptical group.

I doubt they'll even hit 5% of that.

Of course, the really amusing thing is that Jesus Christ, if alive and eligible to be President, would be far to the left of Barack Obama.

That's nice but I don't think Jesus ever said he'd be willing to take the job.

What would happen if a Jesus write in actually won?  He's not constitutionally eligible so would all ballots for him just not count?

Just the idea of Jesus Christ costing Mitt Romney the presidency is amusing.

Well, he was born in modern-Israel (not eligible), died before age 35 (not eligible), and hasn't obtained write-in status (not eligible).

Plus he's a socialist, so it's not like he'd have a shot anyway :-P

I'm all for JC. He would raise taxes on the rich (it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven), end the death penalty (bad memories), increase help for the poor (Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled), cut defense spending (Prince of Peace), universal healthcare (healing the sick).  Also don't be surprised if he legalizes prostitution.
