Please watch this video. It may be the best campaign video this year. It is short, sweet, and hard-hitting (only 7 minutes long). Every Christian should see this. (Suffer through the partial birth abortion segment.):

By the way, studies show that a large percentage of conservative Christians fail to vote. What a tragedy. If we all voted, we would win consistently and America would recover from its ills.
Jesus taught us to “render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s.” In a democratic republic, we the people are Caesar. We must infer that this command requires us to contribute to the republic by, at the very least, exercising our right to vote. Unlike non-Christians, the right to vote is really the obligation to vote.
There are numerous Bible passages that confirm the importance of God, Government, and the Christian’s obligation to engage the culture. These include:
