Billy Graham ad: 'Vote for biblical values'

Billy Graham
2012 Presidential Election

Billy Graham, in a national advertising campaign launched Oct. 18, calls on Americans to “vote for biblical values” as they cast ballots in the upcoming election.

A full-page ad in Thursday’s Wall Street Journal and Friday’s USA Today featured the legendary evangelist’s picture beside a block of text stating: “The legacy we leave behind for our children, grandchildren and this great nation is crucial. As I approach my 94th birthday, I realize this election could be my last. I believe it is vitally important that we cast our ballots for candidates who base their decisions on biblical principles and support the nation of Israel. “I urge you to vote for those who protect the sanctity of life and support the biblical definition of marriage between a man and a woman. Vote for biblical values this November 6, and pray with me that America will remain one nation under God.”

NewI guess it's a tad ironic

I guess it’s a tad ironic coming from one who’s consistently chosen to compromise on certain other “biblical values” the good latter part of his life.

NewI don't agree with what they

Mon, 10/22/12

I don’t agree with what they did but I also realize THEY realize this election more than any other is good vs evil one President who is more anti-Christian values than any other President in history, and is 100% for abortion and EVEN allowing babies to die on the table if they are born alive from an abortion. An ad is coming out tonight about a child who was saved from dying by a sympathetic nurse who refused to let her die. Billy Graham has never backed a candidate publicly till this election.
