Insulting the electorate and accusing it of spiritual weakness and sinfulness are not the ways to get yourself the job of president.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Politics are not the task of a Christian.
There's always an element of self delusion among people who believe they ought to be President. There's an underestimation of your opponent and an overestimation of your own abilities. This is compatible with being rich and powerful, the idea that we were blessed by God because we deserve to be blessed.
Any candidate who claims his religion has no influence on his decisions is either a dishonest politician or a shallow follower of his faith.
The presidency is not an entry-level electoral job.
A people fatigued by bad presidential judgment aren't inclined to reward him or his party.
There are just some things about being president that are difficult.
Being president isn't anything like reality TV. It's not about sending insulting tweets or making fiery speeches; it's about whether or not the candidate can handle the awesome responsibility of leading this country.
The presidency is not an office job.
If you're not electing Christians, then in essence you are going to legislate sin.
In all the things I've gone through as a politician, I have seen that in this system it is really very difficult to make any headway without being somehow tainted. And let me say, 'Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.'
