Edwards, Obama, and Hillary speak on faith

Here's a YouTube clip showing some moments from the 45-minute CNN-aired forum on faith and politics. The program was hosted by Sojourners, a liberal Washington faith-based group devoted to eliminating poverty. Some things you won't see in the clips: Edwards got the hardest questions of the night -- speaking to an evangelical audience about evolution and gay marriage. Obama's policy ideas mentioned after this clip (I wrote them down): government support for early childhood education for ages 0-3, pairing nurses with young parents to support those efforts, transitional government jobs for ex-convicts and those leaving the prison system, an increase in the minimum wage, and allowing shareholders to vote on executive pay as a check on the system. Incremental changes. He needs to be bolder, both in his ideas and the way he talks about them. Obama borrowed from the Bible and Martin Luther King, Jr, but he needs to create his own phraseology for these issues. Hillary was pretty good in a reserved way. I didn't know she was a Methodist. My ranking: Hillary 1st, Edwards 2nd, Obama 3rd. I am still most likely to vote for Obama, though.
