There's a gullible side to the American people. They can be easily misled.

Unfortunately, religion, like patriotism, is easy to misuse for political purposes.

Americans deserve to have their religious beliefs and practices protected. Religious freedom is too important to be trampled by insensitive bureaucracy or bad policy.

Being religious is quintessentially American.

I think the real problem for American religion are those minority of fundamentalists who try to identify political policies with religion.

I cannot reconcile monitoring certain people for no reason other than their religion with the freedom of religion we have here in America.

The American people are tired of liars and people who pretend to be something they're not.

You cannot classify a whole group of people based upon their religion and determine their intent. That's not fair. It's not American.

I think that much of the truth has been withheld from the American people.

Religion, for better or for worse, has been politicized in blatant ways that have seldom been equaled in American elections.
