Cory Booker says this:

"Before you speak to me about your religion, first show it to me in how you treat other people; before you tell me how much you love your God, show me in how much you love all His children; before you preach to me of your passion for your faith, teach me about it through your compassion for your neighbors. In the end, I'm not as interested in what you have to tell or sell as in how you choose to live and give.
" Amazing insight ! 
I'm sure many sane people would not disagree.

Do you know something about Booker that I don't or do you just not like politicians in general?

Next time try leading with that maybe?
