Yes I have. It is plain as can be. Certain statements lead me to believe that some people are too stupid for the highest office. Why is that so hard for you to comprehend? I don't really care if you feel differently (or a big chunk of the US voting public). The masses are asses sometimes.

I agree with you to an extent. I think there clearly are some beliefs a president could hold that would make me conclude that person could never be president. A 6,000 year old earth to me is curious, but I wouldn't conclude a person who held to that belief was stupid or incapable of holding office. I just don't see why it is worse to hold that belief than a belief that Jesus walked on water.
In fact, if anything it is easier to demonstrate that man cannot walk on water than it is to demonstrate that the earth is older than 6,000 years. Go to a lake, step on it.
