You could have made a similar list for Obama prior to being elected to say he isn't a moderate either.

Women aren't allowed to reproduce in Ohio? That is messed up.

What does Obama have to do with whether or not Kasich is a moderate?

The point is that you can take any politician and make them seem however moderate or not based on some issues. Kasich is a Republican. He is going to agree with a lot of Republican ideas. Obama is a Democrat. He is going to agree with a lot of Democratic ideas.

I think Kasich would be a much better President than either Hillary or Trump.

No shit, Sherlock. There are moderates and hardcores in both parties. For some reason, Kasich is viewed as a moderate. He doesn't want to build a wall along the Mexican border, or round up millions of illegals, so compared to Trump and Cruz, he appears moderate. In my opinion, he really isn't, as he has MANY extreme positions. I have no interest in arguing about Obama or Hillary with you.



Well, bully for you. I'm not voting for somebody who thinks that the stories in the bible are historical facts, among other reasons.

Come on man. I used the current President of the United States to make a point about a potential President of the United States(though it seems as if he may not win the nomination this year) and you act like I'm completely out of line for doing it.

You are coming off like the "Why are you always mentioning GWB?" people.

Where are we going?



DT asked me to list some reasons why Kasich isn't a moderate, so I listed MANY. I didn't realize doing so would turn the discussion into a referendum on Obama, or I wouldn't have posted anything at all.



Why, because I don't feel like arguing with you? Have a nice day, Rick.

are you saying the bible is completely unreliable as a historical document? I'm not sure what exactly you're saying.

Pretty much. It is like the game telephone. By the end of the game you have a few things still correct but the message has drastically changed. They told stories that were past down orally for hundreds, if not thousands of years. Not a chance in hell they were the same as when the first story was told.

We are going down a slippery slope now, as I don't want to offend anybody's beliefs. Personally, the bible means nothing to me, and it scares me when a politician talks about religion and faith, as much as a guy like Kasich does. Most of the time, these politicians are hard right conservatives, hence why I listed that as one of MANY reasons why he is more right than center.

I am definitely not saying that Jesus Christ can't hit a curve ball.

True, but your emphasis was on his biblical view in the end.

He covered it very well above. Also, there is zero way to verify many of the events in it. It was a oral history, passed down through different languages, and then translated many times over. Who knows what it said at first.

It's mostly a book of fables, vaguely reflecting the values of the time period.

DT asked for the Reader's Digest version, so I listed a few bullet points.

What do you want from me here? I'm certainly not going to get in a long discussion about religion.

how far minimalist are you? Are you in the David, Solomon and Jesus did not exist camp?
