Now you're saying the fundamentalist Christians run American foreign policy.

It's a matter of the level of influence. I imagine that all religous people make *some* decisions based on their religous morality. I've done it. Several times, even. The problem is that the idea of the president is the idea that someone will be able to succesfully run the executive branch in the best interest of his or her constituants...the American people. Now of course there is going to be *some* influence on a president. Yes, big $$$ and more power everywhere is going to eventually tempt someone in a high position of power. The problem is when the president sells to the highest bidder. I can accept a certian level of corruption. I'm not stupid; all government is corrupt in some way or another. Eventually, there has to be a line crossed where one has to make the decision whether it's become harmful. I think we can agree that this is no longer a safe level of corruption. Can we agree on that?
