I clicked yes, and then realized I should have clicked no. And the reason why is simple, Jesus isn't a politician, because the very word itself, 'Politician' is just a fancy word for 'Cannibal'. Why you may ask? Simple, politicians eat the ideas made by others for free, they take those ideas and use them as fuel for their own political agendas, and then you have honerable men and women who die for their country, and politicians devour them, using their sacrifice saying that their death was made to prove some politicians ideals, when it wasnt. There are very VERY VERY few politicians that follow any sort of ethics and moral code at all, and I can't even name any good ones off the top of my head. So no, Jesus shouldn't be president, because he wouldnt really be a president at all, he'd be more of a king.

Only in America. It would be hilarious to see the Republicans struggling with their religiosity and hatred of socialism.
What do you mean? Are you implying that socialism is good and that Jesus would advocate for it? Because this cant possibly be true, Socialism has resulted in the uneeded deaths of millions of people all across history and the world. "But it has good ideals" you say, well thats lovely, let me tell you these ideals, I want to fix my country's economic problem, I want to unite humanity under a single flag so that we may advance to areas never seen before. These are noble and true goals right? Well what if in order to get those goals accomplished I start a holocaust? I invade other nations and kill innnocent civilians, all in the name of united humanity? Am I still a hero with true and noble goals then? Because if you say yes you my fine sir are full of BS. This is EXACTLY what Nazi Germany did, it had those wonderful good intentions, and then threw morality out the window, doing this would NOT make me a hero, it would make me a monster who needs to be put down. The same exact thing can be said for communism, it has noble goals, it wants to free man from his binds of economic slavery, a goal that everyone should work for starting first with their themselves, bettering their own lives, then their family's, then their communities, and then their world. But these good goals dont make up for the sensless slaughter of milliions done in 'the good of the nation'. whether it be your great leap forward or your destructive great purge, leave humanity the hell out of it.
Oh, and yes I realize that I jumped from socialism to communism, the simple reason why is because at least communism has those noble ideals, all that socialism has is a chain tied with one end around your ankle, and the other around a government.
I am tolerant of many things, but NOT of Marxists. Keep that bs to yourselves.
