When will there be another evangelical Democratic candidate for President again?

Whoa, Bill Clinton is a Southern Baptist? I assumed he was a Methodist, like Hillary.

He actually left that religion. He's now an unaffiliated Baptist.

As for the question: Perhaps never in the near future. Carter ran during a time when a significant amount of Evangelicals were Democratic. They all disappeared in the 90's. If there was the off hand chance one did, he/she would be branded as a "Judas" among Evangelicals and won't even get to the nomination stage.

Plus evangelicals are increasingly viewed with suspicion within the Democratic Party as well. It would be much easier for a centrist evangelical to run as a moderate Republican rather than a DLC Dem.

What about an actually liberal evangelical?

BRTD, are there any liberal evangelicals in the House/Senate/Governors' Mansions?

Not that I know of besides blacks from majority black districts, but this question is asking toward the future as well. I'm actually surprised there are so few, since there are a notable number in the Minnesota legislature.

If there is a religious left movement, black evangelicals/pentecostals will be the first to capitalize it as candidates.

[DC Al Fine]

Pentacostals regardless of race are vastly conservative with the occasional BRTD exception. We focus on all of the aformentioned issues rather equally wether pro-life/traditional marriage or environmental stewardship, compassion towards the poor amongst the groups I fellowship with (A/G, IHOP and the occasional Indy Baptist)

I thought from your username that you were Reformed. Who knew.

I think Progressive Realist does have a point though. With the exception of abortion, young evangelicals appear to be getting more and more liberal.
