"The Democrats", as you all might be aware of this term, have been in power since a pretty long time. The most interesting fact which was pointed or observed was the removal of all sorts of religious and God related ideas from their political platform. That is surely a very interesting thing!
But, there are some members of the Democratic party who do believe in God and follow religion, as being in the same political party not all are of the same type. My today's post put a spot light on such people, Democrats with Faith!
One of the most famous personalities Democratic party ever had. William ran for the presidential election on party ticket. He gave many famous speeches like "cross of gold" in 1896. He contested for president in 1900 and then again in 1908, after which he continued serving as the secretary of state. However his end times went pretty tough and spent most of the time striving and fighting to give voice to his thoughts. But still a pretty impressive religion supportive personality he was.
Billy is considered as a huge support for Christians. As he is advisor to president since nearly six decades. Not only this, his crusades have visited a number of countries spreading the teachings of Jesus and of the religion Christianity. Recently when questioned about his political affiliation, he himself stated that he is a life long democrat. But with it a pretty impressive religious personality he is.
A pretty controversial personality he is. As his stances and political opinions are liable to be commented and discussed for pretty long intervals of time, almost weeks may be. But he still can be called a religion supportive personality. Jackson is an ordained minister, and not only this has also actively campaigned for the Presidency on the Democratic ticket in both 1984 and 1988. Not only this, he was able to hold mass debates on God and successfully managed to remain in public for nearly five decades.
Woodrow was the 28th president of the United states of America having a religious background, as his father was a minister First Presbyterian Church. Not only this, he also received a degree of doctorate from Princeton university. Leaving all the things to one side and his religious beliefs to the other, he was a man who never abandoned his beliefs and staunchly followed them.
Jimmy is again one of the personalities who are considered as most devoted to religion. Although there is a lot debatable regarding him and his only one term of president ship, but he can be categorized as those who strictly follow bible. At present he is teaching Sunday School for Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains, Georgia. He left his official relationship with the southern Baptist church after the issue of equality of men and women, following the teachings of bible, which clearly show his devotion towards religious values.
