Campaigners have run three radio ads, one of which called Obama a "Christian family man," that aired on gospel stations across the state.

Earlier this month, Obama spoke at an evangelical church in the traditionally conservative city of Greenville, where he demonstrated a casual familiarity with Christian vocabulary, telling the crowd, to much applause, that "I am confident that we can create a kingdom right here on Earth."

Politicians always "adjust" their message, depending on the audience. But what exactly does Obama mean when he says, "...we can create a kingdom right here on Earth." What kind of kingdom?

[GenX]

He's just talking about what his handlers tell him to talk about.

It's obvious his knowledge of religion is as deep as a mud puddle.

Yeah, We know that. The tragedy is, most of the electorate obviously doesn't.

[GenX]

I wouldn't say "most".

He'll need half of the Democratic voters in the country to support him to get the Dem nomination for presidential candidate. Half of the Dems is one quarter of the electorate.

Christians are leaving the Democratic Party in droves, so he is basically speaking to people for whom religion plays little or no part in their lives.
