Politics. America." The film was directed by Bryan Hall and Jack Donaldson. It is an intense discussion of the role of faith in politics. The title is taken from Article Six of the United States Constitution: "no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."<BR/><BR/>If you haven't seen the trailer I suggest you check it out:<BR/><BR/>http://www.articlevithemovie.com/<BR/><BR/>(DVD's just went on sale as well.)

Even though a lot of Republicans do support extreme immigration measures, here's the problem. Running for President with a Democratic controlled congress, and a lot of Republicans in Congress having more moderate stances on immigration, a Republican won't be able to do anything.<BR/><BR/>For Republicans who think that immigration is an issue, they should want to see someone like McCain in office, even if they disagree with his policies.<BR/><BR/>Why? Because he is willing to work with Democrats to get <B>something</B> done about the issue. Even if Tancredo had won the nomination, and the White House, what could he do about immigration without the support of the Congress? Nothing.<BR/><BR/>Another reason why all Republicans should vote for McCain.Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13651452928935595402noreply@blogger.com
