Show Description: I have to say, I am beginning to feel like we are tools being manipulated by the Presidential Candidates. Do they think we are stupid? Do they think we can't see right through it. Do they think we are all simpletons. Why? Because all of the sudden, now that the primaries were held in a Southern state, faith has become unbelievably important. So join the discussion as we look at faith and politics.

Allen's Legal Pad for Are We Being Manipulated By the Presidential Candidates
Are Obama and Huckabee playing us like a fiddle?
Election still 9 months away and I feel jaded
Are we all tools being manipulated by the Presidential candidates
Manipulated like rats herded into a maze
Starting to feel that way – SC today, FL Tuesday
Obama's operatives passing out flyers in SC emphasizing that he is a committed Christian but not using that same tactic in NY
Why is that?
CLIP of Obama
Huckabee making snide comments about Romney's Mormonism to slip in the element of fear and doubt
CLIP of Huckabee
Why is that?
Hillary, McCain, Romney – all going to great lengths to use their faith to convince me to vote for them – as if somehow I were a dog in need of a master
CLIP of Romney or others
Here's an idea – just be honest
Tell me about your faith, tell me what's important to you, show me who you are
Don't use your faith – live it
Don't try to manipulate me – show me
Just be honest – I for one will be grateful
Obama – Belief net and Washington Post
I believe in the power of prayer – Instrument of God's will – Felt God's Spirit beckoning me – guided by my faith
Muslim dad and stepdad – rumors of Islam
I'm a positive guy – can't get over 7 candidates
Not sure I can trust any of them
How jaded I am – is that normal?
Faith detector – genuine or not
is it OK to use faith to manipulate voters – litmus test
Sincere? Who's most genuine?
