Will the next Catholic President be conservative or liberal? (death, abortion, parties)

[MillTownCath]

Catholics are a weird breed, politically speaking. Although they are often times very socially conservative, they can also be just as fiscally liberal. Even Joe Biden, a Democrat and the first Roman Catholic VP, has more conservative views on abortion than most others in his party.

Catholics are slipt between the parties, it seems.
Pro-Life
Pro-Traditional Marriage
Anti-Assisted Suicide

But,
Anti-War
Anti-Death Penalty
Pro-Social Justice
Even a little earth friendly - Vatican announces plans to become first "carbon neutral state" in the world :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)

JFK is the only Catholic President, and we may not have another for a long time. But if/when we do, we he/she be more likely to be liberal or conservative?

He/she didn't say the president had to be catholic. It is just a general question as to IF a future president is catholic, will they me more liberal or conservative?

I think these points make it too hard to tell.

The Church isn't anti-war nor anti-death penalty.

I can't answer that one, but rest assured, conservative or liberal, he or she will most likely be 100% hypocrite

[robbobobbo]

Governor Bob McDonnell's name gets thrown around some as "future presidential material" and he's conservative Roman Catholic.

OK, now you're just making things up. The Catholic Church is very anti-death penalty.
