A Reader's Practical Tips for Engaging in the Political Process

Blog reader Dwight Metcalfe offers a practical suggestion to Catholic (and other Christian voters) who are contemplating voting for pro-choice candidates. In response to Archbishop Vlazny, Dwight says:

"Candidates themselves, not their handlers, need to know, "But for your stance on abortion, I would be voting for you. Instead, I'm a potential vote against you"! Nothing else need be said.

"If more believers would take the trouble to attend local political meetings and 'press the flesh' of the candidates, as it were, relaying this type of message - the faster candidates could see the real people, rather than the 'polls'."
