The evangelical Christian vote in the U.S. and in states like Ohio in the 2012 U.S. presidential election
09/16/2010
The evangelical Christian vote helped president George W. Bush win Ohio in 2004 by 2 points, countering the Democratic vote in Cuyahoga county around Cleveland. McCain failed to connect with evangelicals in 2008. The evangelicals, and pastors like Jerry Falwell and Billy Graham, the head of the Southern Baptist Convention, and evangelical Christian organizer Ralph Reed are organizing support for Romney in 2012. Obama's support for gay marriage is one issue, another is alienating of Catholic communities in some aspects of Obama legislation. The selection of a conservative Catholc from Wisconsin, Paul Ryan, as running mate is also creating increased fervour among evangelicals.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
