McCain also said he agreed with a recent poll that 55 percent of Americans believe the U.S. Constitution establishes a Christian nation. "I would probably have to say yes, that the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation," he said.
People simply don't know the Constitution and don't know the Bible. Where do you find 3 branches of government in the Bible? The Constitution founders deliberately leave out any reference to deity. Here is what's in the Constitution: the first amendment, which guarantees religious freedom.
Politicians ought to talk issues, how to solve problems, and not trying to draw votes from clueless believers.
McCain explained his statement:
On Sunday night, McCain sought to clarify his remarks while campaigning in Hollis, New Hampshire. "What I do mean to say is the United States of America was founded on the values of Judeo-Christian values, which were translated by our founding fathers which is basically the rights of human dignity and human rights," he said.
Ok, what about the slaves, the Native Americans, and the indenture servants building the railroads? In modern days, what about the American soldiers ruthlessly killing poor civilians in various conflicts?
