Poll: Character Counts

For all the policy blueprints churned out by presidential campaigns, there is this indisputable fact: People care less about issues than they do about a candidate's character.
A new Associated Press-Ipsos poll says 55 percent of those surveyed consider honesty, integrity and other values of character the most important qualities they look for in a presidential candidate.
Just one-third look first to candidates' stances on issues; even fewer focus foremost on leadership traits.
Basically, the message our pundits in Washington should take from this poll is: STOP LYING TO US, CHEATING US, AND STEALING OUR MONEY FROM US!
It is easy for them to talk a good game during election season, then when they take office, it all seems to go out the window, and its business as usual again. That needs to change, immediately, if not sooner.
No amount of money or fame or accolade can take the place of a clear conscience. There is no substuitute for being right with God and your fellow man. Unconfessed sin separates us from God and each other. Trust me, I know.
It must be very difficult for our elected officials, compromised and beholden to the power brokers behind the scenes from day one. The only real choice they have is to come clean with us, their bosses, and break the chains of bondage to sin that bind them.
Our earthly gift for salvation in Christ is knowledge of the truth. "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free."
