I'm sorry, but Christ would also not make it on the Democratic Ticket either.
Insist on raising taxes??

Matt 22:19-21
They brought him a denarius and he asked them, "Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?"
"Caesar's," they replied.
Then he said to them, "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."

Jesus was
apolitical, if anything, focusing on the actions of the
individual, not governments or institutions.
