I believe God puts leaders in place, yes.So you believe that God picks political favorites and we will be right with God by our political choices?
But more to the point here I believe God holds Christians responsible for their actions.

Very well could be.Seems like the best option, then, is to not vote, lest one make the wrong choice - if it is that serious of a matter and since there is no Biblical warrant that a Christian must engage in politics.
Barack Obama Net Worth | Celebrity Net Worth
"Between 1991 and 2004, Barack never earned more than $30,000 for his work as a professor and state representative. The majority of the Obama family income during this time came from Michelle's lucrative salary as a lawyer working primarily for the University of Chicago hospital system.
In 2005 Barack's income jumped to $157,100 when he became a US Senator. In the same year, Michelle earned $273,618. In 2005, their total income was $1.65 million. Where did that extra $1.2 million come from???…

yes of course He does... Christ and those that follow ChristI believe God puts leaders in place, yes.

I do.Could we also make the assumption that most politicians are liars and power hungry and corrupt?
God fearing are the only one s I’m interested in... those that walk with the Lord.True, but that is not what I mean. God puts secular leaders in place.
My interest in politics is limited. I think it shows us the direction a nation is going.
Cool. Then you must be like me, not overly anxious about politics. Sometimes it is nice being a sojourner.God fearing are the only one s I’m interested in... those that walk with the Lord.
I think people(all of us) sin because, as the Bible tells us, we are all corrupted beings due to Adam’s fall in the Garden of Eden. We just all don’t sin in the same ways and to the same degrees(from a human point of view - we know that the “least” sin is awful in God’s sight).
While what you say is correct, it relates to the topic about as much as stating that "cows moooooo"!
GOP strategists are saying Trump will win 348 electoral votes to Biden's 190. The GOP will retake the House with a gain of 5 to 8 seats and will gain 1 additional seat on the Senate.
Trump got a bounce from the DNC Convention.
Do you really, really believe that? I think the chances of all that happening to that degree are 1 in a 100 quadrillions.
I think the Democrats win the House again, the Republicans lose seats but might hang on to the Senate, and the presidential election is up for grabs.
I paid attention to very little of the DNC convention, will be the same way with the RNC convention this week. Conventions have become nothing more than informercials. The last conventions I recall having any drama were in 1980 - would Reagan choose Ford as his VP, would Kennedy shake Carter’s hand?
The part last week that I did notice a lot of was the roll call. Loved that it went from state to state or territory location. Especially loved the Northern Marianas. Looks like a beautiful place to be a U.S. citizen and live - also it is far away from the mess that the Republican and Democratic Parties have created on the U.S. mainland.
think that you are liberal on social issues.
