If Jesus ran for President...and poutine

[sweatboard]

A. Republican
B. Democrat
C. Independent

How would he stand on....
Foreign Policy?
Economy?

What other issue would you want Jesus to tackle?

[Jaimoe]

I'd assume he wouldn't be American, so none of the above would apply. However, for argument's sake, I'll say he'd be an Independent and very conservative with a giant environmental platform.

[megalicious]

None of those Tea Party nutjobs would vote for him--they view that whole "love thy neighbor" and "care for the poor" thing as dirty socialism.

;D

[MarkW]

If the real Jesus Christ was to stand up today, he'd be gunned down cold by the CIA.

The The.  1989.

I'd rather see one of the high-ups from an Indian or Asian religion run for president.

I can hardly support such a hypocritical, brutal leader.

jesus could never get elected. he's a commie

How do you know?  Have you seen his birth certificate?  Do I need to call Donald Trump?  There's no way he's Canadian - never saw Jesus on skates eating round bacon.  I think Mitt Romney believes Jesus is American for what its worth.

Well, he predates North America and he was originally from Bethlehem, that is, if he existed at all. I bet he'd want no part of what's going on over there right now. He doesn't need to skate either since he walks on water.

For the record, our breakfasts in the Great White North are similar to yours (excluding grits), including bacon and sausages. That round bacon you refer to we call peameal bacon and is used more in sandwiches and specialty breakfast meals such as Eggs Benedict.

I got some Inca and Seminole friends who beg to differ with your view.  I'm pretty sure that the Mormons say that Jesus moved to America at some point.  So I guess you're right, the best he could be is a naturalized citizen.  So I guess he could be Govenor of California, but not President.  And I'm sure he would go negative early.  Now, can you explain this:

[Taterbug]

He would totally legalize the weed.  And Skittles would be the national food. He friggin LOVES Skittles.

[mjk73]

He would have to legalize the weed to eat poutine. I mean come on, it's totally stoner food.

Poutine rules, but it's better the nearer you get to Quebec. I don't like the gourmet kinds though that include Italian (includes tomato sauce) and duck. The simplier the better, with just great curds, fries and beef gravy, although chicken gravy is acceptable.

Poutine 2012!

[woodnymph]

 ;D ;D  I really have to interject that I just had an in-depth conversation about poutine LAST NIGHT.  I've heard of "gravy & fries" before.... but last night was a conversational learning experience about it!  And now it's posted on the President Jesus thread....... what are the odds?

Much higher than I'd thought, apparently!

To make things even more artery-clogging, some of the country's fast food chains such as Burger King, Lick's and Harvey's offer poutine as part of any "value" combo.
