About this episode
There’s this adage that says, “Don’t talk about religion or politics unless you want to get in trouble.” Well, this series is all about religion, so we might as well go the rest of the way this episode, and talk about politics!

In this case, the importance of the person, the character of the people we select as our leaders, over what they supposedly stand for. Here are some reasons--from the Christian perspective--why you might want to vote for a person even if they hold views or position you disagree with!
0:33 To examine who we are is to examine our relation to reality - God
6:53 Why democracies are vulnerable to ourselves
17:28 My proposal : Vote for a person, not a party
