was a candidate for president of the United States. He

well known among Christian conservatives and people
that are considered social conservatives," Giuliani
told Radio Iowa. "...His advice and his support means
a great deal." Robertson came in second in the 1988
Iowa Caucuses, and is famous for calling for the
assassination of the Venezuelan president, saying
Israel Prime Minister Ariel Sharon
suffered a stroke for withdrawing Israeli troops from
Gaza, and agreeing with Rev. Jerry Falwell’s
comments
blaming the September 11th attacks on their
political enemies:
JERRY FALWELL: And, I
know that I'll hear from them for this. But, throwing
God out successfully with the help of the federal
court system, throwing God out of the public square,
out of the schools. The abortionists have got to bear
some burden for this because God will not be mocked.
And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies,
we make God mad. I really believe that the pagans, and
the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and
the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an
alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the
American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize
America. I point the finger in their face and say 'you
helped this happen'.
PAT
ROBERTSON: Well, I totally concur, and the problem is
we have adopted that agenda at the highest levels of
our government. And so we're responsible as a free
society for what the top people do. And, the top
people, of course, is the court system.
JERRY
FALWELL: Amen.
