Yes, he is for real. He is a very religious, ultra right wing, in his thinking. Most people would be offended by his message. I am!

One point you and he share in common is that the US is a democracy.

The US is a republic. Read the US Constitution the word, republican government, appears and democracy and democratic never appear.

Yeah, we are a republic representative democracy. It's much easier to say democracy.

I do know the difference.

If you know the difference then the proper word is republic.

I guess this guy would prefer Sharia law.

I think stupid people should not be allowed to vote and he falls into that category.

Well that idea also fails because of who determines the criteria for who can and cannot vote.

Then comes the battle of which denomination gets the vote.

If we go back to the kings and queens then we face the same problem with hereditary leadership which is every now and again you end up with an idiot in power.

Gods command was that his people were to remain separate from the world so lets just start with that one and keep the world out the church and the church away from running the world until the appointed time when Christ returns.
