FT. LAUDERDALE, Florida, August 23 /Standard Newswire/ -- For months the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission has been working to encourage both Barack Obama and John McCain to pick a true Christian for a Vice Presidential running mate. Dissatisfied with both Obama and McCain, the CADC believed that which ever party picked a true Christian as a vice presidential candidate could receive significant support of conservative Evangelicals and Catholics.
"Barack Obama's choice of Joe Biden sends a clear message, true Christians need not apply in the Democratic Party," said Dr. Gary Cass, Chairman and CEO of the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission. "Instead of picking a true Christian, Obama, a fake evangelical, has selected Biden, a fake Catholic. Biden is a liberal on social policy in defiance of Christian moral teaching. He has a 0% rating by National Right to Life and voted against the Federal Marriage Amendment."
"Now we are watching what McCain will do. Will he pick a pro-choice Republican or perhaps a moderate Mormon or a liberal Jew? I urge McCain to pick someone that conservative evangelicals and Catholics can support," said Cass.
"Unless McCain picks a true Christian for Vice President, real conservative Christians are being disenfranchised from this presidential election. Obama missed a great chance to reach out to Christians. Now we will see if McCain will let conservative Christians have someone we can vote for, not just vote against."
