NASCAR Invocation Features Prayer To Elect A Republican President – Deadspin

That automatically excluded Hillary Clinton (who is not a man) and Bernie Sanders (who is not Christian) from consideration. (Robertson has endorsed Ted Cruz; NASCAR is pretty solidly pro-Trump.) Following the invocation,…
