That only counts if you were one of the oppressed. LOL

We digress.

Not altogether. That digression paints the background for the Obama vs. Romney horserace. It is because the U.S. has become more liberal over these last few years that candidate Obama became first Senator Obama, and then President Obama. I suggest that this unambiguous liberalization trend will permit someone whose Faith is somewhat outside the norm ( acknowledging here that Faith remains an important consideration to many) to compete successfully for the POTUS. Ref here the small gap between President Obama & Mr. Romney in the head-to-head comparisons. While Mr. Romney may not win either the Republican nomination, or if successful at that, the next few years at the White House, it will not be because his Faith is not mainstream Christian.

You have more faith that faith is not a deciding factor than I, old friend.

I do think that the evidence as presented is persuasive, even if it may not be universally convincing.
