Hmm he's a Tory so charging usury (interest), not installing jubilee laws and not looking after the poor are important to him.
Whereas obeying the word of God isn't.
Interesting faith he has.

Nick Clegg, avowed atheist, another tick in the box for me. No chance of him consulting invisible, virgin-impregnating, imaginary friends before deciding to invade Iraq.

You mean he'd have did it anyway? Have our PMs' religious leanings over recent decades been much of an issue, I mean do we think it's that important to the voters? I think an atheist President would be good for the USA especially, but it'll probably take as long (if not longer) as getting a black guy in there did, and they still haven't gone down the female route yet

They probably remember Thatcher, even if our younger voters don't!

Most american voters who know about Thatcher praise her.

Put it this way, I and many people I know are in that facebook group "I'll only pay for a state funeral for Thatcher if she's buried alive". There are few people besides David Cameron that I hate more than Thatcher.
