I agree with the man on almost everything...except a woman's right to kill her unborn child. I'm a Christian and I personally think abortion is wrong...but I don't think it is my business to stop other people from doing it.
If they can live with the guilt etc, then it is between them and God... Sheesh...we have bigger fish to fry than Roe V Wade. Am I wrong?
That is your right, and I for one appreciate your honesty. If more people were like you, then we wouldn't have to play the political guessing game.
If all of the other social, economic, and foreign policy reasons to vote for a President, you have decided that this one, abortion, is your number one priority.
You are in the minority in your views, and your honesty.
I will give you my honest opinion. I don't like abortions, I think that they should be used less frequently and that any means to prevent them, including giving free birth control and sex ed classes to end as many abortions as is humanly possible.
However, I don't want the federal government to have the power to tell someone what they can and can't do with their body. So while I don't like abortions, I will never tell someone else they can't get one.
You are missing a HUGE point though. Although he personally believes that abortion is wrong, he is also a huge proponent of stats rights, which is where this falls for him. As president, he would not see himself as the correct person to make the decision on abortion at the FEDERAL level, so he would never try to pass any laws regarding it.
Doesn't matter what he thinks the issue has long been a federal issue he can't change.
No two people will agree on everything. Pick the candidate that you feel best represents your interests. This has nothing to do with abortion unless you make it about abortion.

Can you think of a bigger issue? Hundreds of thousands of babies die every year as a result. The left managed to get health care takeover passed with a silly argument that there were people dying from no health care.
Abortion will never be illegal people, if that's your bottom line don't vote at all.

Anything you can think of is a bigger issue. The "not yet born" run in last place to the "already here" and all their troubles.

Your missing my point and arguing with the wrong person.

Well, the Constitution enshrines life as an inalienable right. Do you disagree with that?
