I'm from Canada and I have been following Ron Paul's campaign for quite a few weeks now. He's amazing. In my entire life (I'm a grandmother) I've never seen a politician as inspiring....no, not even during the 1960's.
That Ron Paul has not been pandering to the evangelical segment of the population is actually very noble in my opinion. Yet as one of those evangelicals myself I can tell you that I think it's very important that Dr. Paul at least informs others like myself that he has a committed faith.
I believe if he were to start making some kind of announcement of his faith at this point it would certainly appear that he is simply trying to 'up' his numbers and using God to do it. However, if the endorsement (or perhaps a new and more professional one) of Chuck Baldwin had some more televised publicity it would be a tasteful way to let people know of his faith.
While I do know there are many skeptics regarding a politician's faith (and rightfully so given what we've all witnessed in recent years), it can hardly be emphasized enough that this is one of the prime requirements for many Christian voters.
Personally, the most important factor to me is that he will repeal that ghastly Patriot Act!!!!!!!
