Looks like Hickenlooper is setting the table for a run for President.
https://coloradopolitics.com/hickenlooper-pac-president/

Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper is creating a political action committee, putting him a giant step closer to jumping into the race for president in 2020, Colorado Politics confirmed Monday.

But the governor also extended his timetable for deciding whether to enter the race, saying he now plans to wait until after he leaves office in January.


I've always liked Hickenlooper. He's a very no-nonsense guy.

Where does Hickenlooper stand on issues related to Christian values and beliefs?

He opposes God's position on homosexuality and civil unions. He opposes God's condemnation of infanticide. He opposes Christian views of capital punishment and imprisonment for offenders.

He also supports lax voter registration rules and is against voter identification protections for American elections. He favors the legalization of mind-altering substances and increased funding for many government programs, including healthcare, education, and government agencies like the EPA. He favors communistic redistribution of wealth silliness and raising higher taxes on harder working Americans who make more money than others (become rich in the eyes of bums) because of that hard work and increased sacrifice.

He is a democrat and will not likely be able to hide his socialistic, communistic anti-American views well if he runs for national office.

Don't pretend that matters to you fake Christians. It doesn't. The more immoral a candidate is the more you people worship them. If you, specifically you Marke, don't support Hickenlooper it is probably because he hasn't been divorced enough times, or paid for enough sex, or because he hasn't sexually assaulted enough women. He may not be willing to do those things for your athiestic votes.
 
Dickenlicker. He supports illegal immigrants.

Both my grandfather and my uncle were democrats and deacons in Immanuel Baptist Church in Little Rock Arkansas during the 1980s when Bill Clinton was attending. My grandfather was close friends with Wilbur Mills when Mills was still in power before his sexual misdeeds were made public. I never supported democrats whether they were sexually promiscuous or not. I realize republicans also have sins in their closets (some more than others) but I still vote against those who promote baby murder and other ungodly policies, regardless of what sins those politicians may be accused of.

Oh I didn't realize your uncle going to church suddenly makes you a Christian. Can you quote me the verse that says "as long as your daddy's brother went to church a couple times you are a good Christian and can ignore any abomonination inconvenient to you because politics is more important than faith, values and morals"? I swear I've read that book and went back and searched and for the life of me I cannot find the passages that state that.

You suggested I supported politicians with reputations for vile immorality. My democrat relatives did that, but I don't. I support sinners who are favorable to conservative Christian policies and values. There are no sinless politicians.

What I am hearing is that you support sinners and sell out the faith you pretend to have in order to spread hate. You condemn Hickenlooper for consentual relations between two adults but applaud other for rape and sexual assault. There is not a single Christian in the GOP right now. You have thrown your support behind athiests who worship money and turned your back on real Christian leaders and then try to excuse your sins by disrespecting your father.

You did have one bit of truth in your statement. When you said "I support sinners" you were being honest for the first time since you joined this forum.

I do not support sin. I do vote for sinners but only when there are no sinless candidates on the ballot, if you catch my drift. I oppose adultery and divorce, and do not support adultery and divorce in politicians I support for other reasons. I do not support whatever extramarital relations the Hickenloser may have had, but it is his opposition to God's condemnation of adultery, divorce, rape, and sexual perversion that makes me oppose his candidacy.

I believe Pence, Cruz, Jordan and others are good Christians who are also GOP politicians. What are you trying to think? What democrats are you thinking are good Christians?

Plenty of Democrats are Christian. Jimmy Carter was the most Christian president in modern times. A Christian is a believer in Jesus Christ as Saviour. And it is supposed to follow that Christian values will be inherent to a Christian. I see no Christian values in Republican policies that rob the poor, in favor of policies for billionaires. I see no Christian values in building skyrocketing deficits that the poor and middle class of future generations will be saddled with. I see no Christian values in denial of science and climate change, which will be a curse on future generations. I see no Christian values in the lies that Conservative ***holes on TV and radio (who claim to be Christians), when they lied repetetively about Obama and Clinton.

I am sorry he doesn't pay off porn stars with hush money like the moral man you will be choosing to support over him.

The only way Hickenlooper could ever get his Party's nomination is if the media is successful in rewriting his history. Now, I'm not saying that is impossible. But it's a tall order.

His problem is that he has always touted himself as being a moderate. The Democratic Party won't accept a moderate nowadays. They have moved so far to the left that only people like Sen. Harris, Booker or that wild-eyed lady from NY will ever be considered. The Dems have no use for...and will never trust...a moderate.
 
I do vote for sinners

it is his opposition to God's condemnation of adultery, divorce, rape, and sexual perversion that makes me oppose his candidacy.

His opposition to condemnation of adultery, divorce, rape and sexual perversion that makes you oppose his candidacy however you love and admire those things in other candidates. Hypocrite is a word you should look up. It will have special meaning to you I think.

Wow, funny how one sometimes know who posted something before ever reading their name beforehand.

Jimmy Carter opposed prayer in public schools and condemned Christian proselyting of the heathen, including Muslims. He was not the kind of Christian that many Christian conservatives supported. Bill and Hillary as well as the Obamas also claimed to be Christians but they were not the kind of Christians conservative Christians could support.

I see no Christian values in Republican policies that rob the poor, in favor of policies for billionaires.

Democrat policy: Have the US government pay for kids to go tom school, if necessary, so they can get good jobs and become rich and hide their wealth in foundations and shelters while claiming the honest working stiffs are not paying their fair share in exorbitant taxes.

I see no Christian values in building skyrocketing deficits that the poor and middle class of future generations will be saddled with.

Short term democrats see some sort of twisted value in plunging the US into unsustainable debt in order to make the books reflect a short term surplus during their time in office. That is called "cooking the books." The problem with credit card spending like that is that borrowed riches are always followed by painful, long term debt repayment which will cost future taxpayers trillions to eliminate, if even possible.

I see no Christian values in denial of science and climate change, which will be a curse on future generations.

Deluded Darwinists condemn Christians who believe the Biblical record of creation and the flood. These descendants of atheistic Scopes Trial buffoons are adamant that institutionalized science drive out any evidence or interpretation of data which supports the Biblical record.

I see no Christian values in the lies that Conservative ***holes on TV and radio (who claim to be Christians), when they lied repetetively about Obama and Clinton.

Lefties do not like anyone exposing their dirty secrets to the world. That is what got Set Rich killed and what was behind the Obamanite suppression of investigations into his death.

Thanks for proving that not all the dinosaurs died off millions of years ago.

I don't approve of immoral sex, prostitution and porn payments, but I oppose the murder of helpless babies so much that I will vote for a sex addict if that is what it takes to stop a baby killer from gaining control over US morals and laws to the harm of those babies.

You claim I love and admire sin in republicans. That is stupid. Do you love and admire sin in democrats? If you do you are wrong to do so.

I did not prove dinosaurs lived until just a matter of a few thousand years ago, recent discoveries of soft tissues and dating of those tissues in dinosaurs proved that. Interestingly, the unfossilized remains of a duckbill dinosaur discovered in Alaska in 1961 also debunked two of Darwinist's most cherished speculative theories, that dinosaurs died off 65 million years ago and that no dinosaurs ever roamed the North Pole.

Nope, you managed neither. What you did prove, and continue to prove, is that dinosaurs still walk among us.

I don't like democrats so your are simply failing at turning the tables. Be honest and stop lying. You only vote for sin. The bigger the sinner the more power you want them to have. You have no values. You are not a person of faith.

You continue to totally misrepresent my thinking. You should step back and examine yourself, your bias, and your false accusations against me. Stop calling me a liar.

I don't support any candidates that are blatantly immoral and are known to pay for sex, admit to sexual assault, and have broken their vow to the Lord repeatedly. There are no false accusations against you. You are a liar. Stop pretending to be a Christian. It is insulting to real Christians and makes Christianity look bad when people like you pretend to be something you aren't. Keep worshiping perverts but leave Christianity out of it.

If you do not vote for sinners I wonder if you even vote at all. Or do you like to vote for some sins while voting against others? You must live a very busy life researching the lives of candidates dating back sometimes half a century and judging between the sinners worthy of support and the sinners unworthy of support.
 
You cannot point to real sins against very many politicians today. Many may hold different political views so you assume the worst but others are blatantly immoral. You support the most immoral candidates period. I don't know why you are arguing that. You came into this thread pretending to pass Christian judgements against Hickenloopers while you worship an adulterer who disrespects everything real Christians believe. You can have your views. That is your right as an American but be honest at least. You are an atheist. You are not a Christian. Stop being a fraud.
