One of the things about politics that is most disturbing is that so few pay attention.
But most people just start to pay attention a month before the election, and a forum like last night does a disservice to them, and all citizens of the state, if this is how we are delivering information to the masses about who should run the state and why.
I don’t think forums that reward the candidate who does the best imitation of the fast talking Fed Ex spokesperson from the classic 1980’s TV commercials is anyway to decide who runs a state, let alone a high school senior class.

 Bahama Pundit: Politics & Religion in The Bahamas
A variation on this theme is the growing tendency of some in the Bahamian political arena to attribute their actions to the will of God.
We are fortunate to live in a country where there is religious freedom; where there is harmony between the various denominations; where there is a consensus which allows co-operation between church and state for the good of God’s people; but where there is also a healthy separation of church and state, and no state church.
In our political parties there are Christians of all denominations and, while we are called upon as citizens to make political judgments, it is not for us to judge who is trying the hardest to do God’s will.
