Is The North American Republican Party Manipulating Fundamentalist Christians To Acquire Support And To What Extent Is Church And State Association Acceptable?
Fundamentalist Christianity is notorious for protesting abortion clinics, soldiers’ funerals and Gay pride events in North America, originating from the late nineteenth century and the early nineteen hundreds; this highly controversial and widely criticized branch of Christianity has spread like wide fire for mostly in the southern parts of North America. Fundamentalist Christianity is used as an opposition to liberal attitudes and modernity; this is why it’s clear why many fundamentalist Christians may choose to vote for right wing candidates in North American politics, most likely the Republicans. ‘fundamental Christian’s may prefer to being referred as “fundamental Christians” or “evangelists” due to the pejorative nature of fundamentalism in wider world religion, (for example, fundamentalist Muslim can often have frequent referred to middle eastern terrorist groups such as the Taliban). It’s obviously incredibly important that the first amendment is fulfilled and each is to voter is to vote to their own personal preference, but is the Republican Party taking advantage of fundamentalist Christianity?
Republican former president, George W. Bush, although a Methodist Christian, it is blindingly obvious that he used the church and his faith to gain support, "I believe that God wants me to be president”, he reportedly mentioned during a 2004 Washington speech, which I can’t help but feel is a violation of “separating church and state”, a term used by Thomas Jefferson in 1802.

Where did you get your information?

Also, you're about 30 years too late with this. It occured during the late 70's and got Reagan elected. The last 5 years or so have seen an intentional seperation by the RNC from the fundamentalists and religion in general due to the influx of a more libertarian mindset.

The Jefferson quote has no legal bearing on anything.

A note: liberal groups are better known for protesting soldiers' funerals; conservative groups are much more respectful.

Your style is slightly meandering.  When you go into the rest of this essay you should lead into the difference between personal opinion and group opinion and then focus on what >>2 said.  You should read up more about Christian Fundamentalism and its contemporary issues and effects (and if you want to bring Evangelism as more than just a label, read up on the Second Great Awakening).

I'll also give you something on "separation of Church and state:" the intended purpose, as was written, was to protect organized religion of any sort from becoming a puppet of the government, or the other way around, not that the two could never mix in any way and that one could not have some manner of influence on the other (that's impossible).  Liberal groups like to interpret Jefferson's phrase in that way, that the two should never mingle.

Don't help him!

"Separation of church and state" is actually a common quote from a letter Jefferson wrote to a Baptist church (don't recall the name ATM).  That church was concerned that the new government would interfere with the church in the same way European states at the time would.

As for what the Founders would think of the whole "turn back to god" thing, don't know.

Most of them were religious themselves.  I think they would balance personal support for the movement with "it's a personal choice;" you could argue that if politicians had stayed more like the Founders over the years, the anti-religious sentiments might not be as severe as they are today.

That, and it was held as so obvious as not to require public clarification that this was to be a White Christian Anglophone nation.  White immigrants are welcome only to the extent that they are willing and able to adopt our ways and assimilate.  No others are needed, wanted, nor welcome.

Regardless of who's allowed in, we're all full up presently.
You can only jam so many people in a limited space..

Yeah but it wasn't the fundy sort of religious.  Jefferson edited the Bible to remove everything but Jesus' moral teachings and had this distributed to the Indians,  That's hardly a fundy's idea of spreading the word of God.  I believe Ben Franklin was on record as being deist as well.

At the time, all Whites pretty well believed in segragation of one stripe or another.  It's not so much that they explicitly did not want blacks and hispanics as that it was an assumption of the times.  I suppose by the same token we're speciesist because we don't contemplate giving chimps the vote.

Not yet, but on the day when it is demonstrated that fifty percent plus one chimpanzees can be trained to caper and leap into a voting booth and pull the lever for the straight "D" ticket, then we will see agitation from all the usual suspects about giving chimpanzees the vote.
