Of course there is nothing wrong with that question Sean. What Number 20 said about Democrats aiming at the atheist crowd may be true. It is true that the Republicans aim at the Christian crowd for the most part. They don't literally claim to be God approved, it is more that they uphold traditional Christian beliefs. Such as being opposed to abortion (which is not a solely theistic stance) and being against gay marriage, and freedom to practice religion to name a few. Religious people will traditionally be Republican because the Republicans are interested in protecting the interests of religious people. Not because God comes down and gives them his stamp of approval. It is common sense really, you are going to vote for the guy who holds similar viewpoints to your own. Really when it comes down to it, if a voter is smart they will look at the person and his views and decide from there, rather than voting for him because he is in the Republican party. This is pretty ignorant, and yes, a lot of religious people fall into this trap.
