Hillary won't ask Bernie: Do you believe in God?

“I’m proud to be Jewish,” the Independent from Vermont – and candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination – responded...at a press breakfast hosted by the Monitor. Though, he added, “I’m not particularly religious.”

Imagine Bernie makes it to the general election with any of the clown car Republicans. Every one of them would 'call out' Bernie's lack of religious practice.

No, they wouldn't attack him for being Jewish.

Republicans would definitely, 100%, call Bernie an agnostic atheist scum. They'd say Americans can't elect someone who doesn't honor God.

This is his #1 liability. I personally don't think it will greatly influence primary voters because they are instead concerned about the electability of a "socialist". BUT I want to know how he would respond to the God question and if his response would work.

Atheists are one of the most disliked groups in America. Only 45 percent of Americans say they would vote for a qualified atheist presidential candidat

This would be an issue for Bernie in the general election. Nonetheless, I'm willing to make Bernie my candidate.

The findings on why we distrust atheists also point towards another potential way of reducing such prejudice: by reminding people of charitable and altruistic acts committed in the name of atheism.
