About the only endorsement i would consider would be that of a candidate i supported who is no longer in the race...but i doubt it would actually influcence my vote since it hasn't in the past.

I noticed a number of people are saying it depends on who is doing the endorsing.
How so? Why does it matter? Do certain endorsements have a negative influence as well as a positive influence, as noted above?
Honestly, I can't think of anyone at all that I trust to evaluate politicians more than I trust myself. -
God Bless! :thumbs: -

Looking at the results of this poll, this is either a unique group or , for the most part, picking up endorsements is a waste of time.
I am curious, though, whose endorsement could possibly influence someone enough to change their vote and why? :confused: -
If I were a prominent Christian leader today, I'd not compromise my standards by endorsing any of the current crop. So......I view any endorsement with skepticism, resulting in less respect for the endorsee..... I want some of our so called spiritual leaders to come out against all, or just hush up, for now. Plenty of time later for persuading the masses.
