Actually, he is one of the most robustly documented historical figures including by the Romans who kept copius records.

Now you can question some aspects of course and divinity and so forth but go say this to any professional historian and they will look at you as if you said George Washington didn't exist.

Jesus was apolitical and had as little to do with the politics of his day as possible. He was not a political reformer. He wouldn't vote, period.

I can say with confidence that Jesus would not be a republican....he just didn't seem like the type to align himself with the party of war and the rich....especially not wars fought for corporate interests. Like another poster said, I think he would be apolitical.

Jesus is the candidate. We vote every day. How have you cast your vote?

If Jesus were here to vote things would be vastly different and better in the world anyway and there probably wouldn’t be a need to vote anymore.

Jesus would vote for me because I am God.
