When will there be another evangelical Democratic candidate for President again?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Obviously the last one was Jimmy Carter. Will we have another one before even say 2032?

Whoa, Bill Clinton is a Southern Baptist? I assumed he was a Methodist, like Hillary.

Would Barack Obama's membership in the Churches of Christ (United) not make him an Evangelical?

Definitely mainline.

What about an actually liberal evangelical?

He actually left that religion. He's now an unaffiliated Baptist.

As for the question: Perhaps never in the near future. Carter ran during a time when a significant amount of Evangelicals were Democratic. They all disappeared in the 90's. If there was the off hand chance one did, he/she would be branded as a "Judas" among Evangelicals and won't even get to the nomination stage.

While it's true a liberal evangelical wouldn't be popular amongst the general evangelical population, I don't see why that'd hurt them in a Democratic primary of all things. Plus you are assuming all evangelicals are like Southern Baptists, one from a liberal evangelical church wouldn't be ostracized. There was actually a pastor of a prominent evangelical church in south Minneapolis (Solomon's Porch) who briefly ran for the legislature as a Democrat (he had to drop out because of how much time it was taking up.)

What about an actually liberal evangelical?

BRTD, are there any liberal evangelicals in the House/Senate/Governors' Mansions?

Not that I know of besides blacks from majority black districts, but this question is asking toward the future as well. I'm actually surprised there are so few, since there are a notable number in the Minnesota legislature.

If there is a religious left movement, black evangelicals/pentecostals will be the first to capitalize it as candidates.

I'm not talking about such a movement, just one candidate. That said though this is pretty unlikely, black Pentecostal preachers aren't likely to support gay marriage. Progressive black churches like Obama's tend to be more mainline in focus. And of course candidates for statewide office tend not to come from super-safe black districts.

I also expect Catholics to capitalize it as well, to a limited degree.

Not likely. Lots of ex-Catholics perhaps, but look at how all the bishops and Catholic hierarchy responded to Obama and any movement toward gay marriage. Any attempt at progressive organization within the Catholic church will be quashed, and anyone in it wishing to take part is going to have to leave.

The party of tolerance does not tolerate evangelicals with traditional views on marriage, child birth etc, so no.

What about an evangelical with liberal positions on those issues? See Jimmy Carter.
