What if Jesus was running for Prez?

Could Jesus be are our next President?

Apart from the minor constitutional issues:

-Not Born in America
-Not quite 35 years of age

Could Jesus be be elected in the current political climate?

Let's examine his reported political convictions:

-Political terrorism: Live by the sword die by the sword...
-Taxation: Render unto Caesar that which is Cesar's...
-Health Care for Kids: Suffer the little children...
-How they will know they are Christian: By their love, by their love...
-America: Forgive them Father for that which do not know...
-Hardest thing he has accomplished: Tied his ass to a tree and walked into town...

Well, could he be elected or get serious TV coverage?

Probably not, as he has not proposed a serious tax reduction plan. Talking about the poor, the meek, the down-trodden (fancy word for stomped on) does not fit into the media playbook about 'serious' candidates.

Jesus sounds too much like a populist, a rabble rouser, and his name sounds too much like an immigrant to gain any traction with our nativist crowd. Plus that kind of talk will get you strung up around these parts.

Peace on earth is not once mentioned in the Gospel alongside the word Democracy, or in any religious text I have ever read.

So, Jesus would probably have not run on the issue of Democracy in the Middle East, but on a platform that promised peace and goodwill to all mankind...
