Tilt in Journalism?

I read an article today that says we need more honesty, truth, and morality in our nations leaders. I couldn't agree more with this statement. The rest of the article seemed to say something different. It pointed out that religion shouldn't be an issue when voting. It pointed out a man's personal beliefs shouldn't be considered when he was running for an office. It said a man had the right to choose for himself what he thought and what he believed and what he would do. My question is, if a man chooses, but then shouldn't tell us what he believes, then how can we as voters know who to vote for. For me the issue of religion is vital, I am a christian, and I know someone who is also a christian(in more than just name) will have the same values that I do. Furthermore I also believe that the honesty, truth, and morality that this article writer is looking for can best be exemplified by a christian. True Christianity does not breed violence, but tolerance. True Christianity does not breed ignorance, but knowledge. True Christianity does not breed hate, but love. A true christian, born again, and living in the spirit of God, will do what is right and just and not judge, hate, or belittle others. He would however tell you the story of Jesus and how he affected his own life, after that it is up to you.
