You Must Vote Democrat If You Want All of These Wonderful Things
Foundationally, I am not partisan. I have confronted—face to face—numerous Republicans running for office who have stood for wrong values. I have worked hard to defeat some Republicans.

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson has a message for the state’s evangelical pastors: Run for office.
Robinson has repeated his message at least eight times over the past few months at church luncheons across North Carolina hosted by the American Renewal Project, a group dedicated to mobilizing evangelical pastors to run for school boards, city councils, county commissions, the state legislature and beyond.

The survey revealed that traditional moral values included integrity, justice, kindness, non-discrimination, trustworthiness, free expression, property ownership, individual self-expression and self-control. {eoa}
