As someone from Kansas, I found this article on MSNBC very interesting. The Republicans don’t seem to understand that the majority of Americans, rather Democrat or Republican, are very moderate in their views. Increasingly, Republicans are aligning themselves with very conservative religious Evangelical Christians. As a Christian, I don’t agree with many who pretend to speak for all Christians. James Dobson, The Family Research Counsel, and many more claim to represent the values of Christians in America. The fact is, a majority of Christians do not agree with their rhetoric and hateful views. Yet they seem to be the loudest voices speaking on every news show about what Christians believe. Kansas has become a breeding ground for REAL compassionate conservatives. As the GOP refuses to budge, Republicans are leaving in droves. The election will decide how the Republican Party chooses to run its party in the future.
