Ron Howling took the stand next, and he read from a teleprompter. It was also approved by him, unlike the tales he had heard of many politicians whose speeches were not approved up until they read them, then had to back away from it as fast as possible. The speech was short and to the point. He hoped that the brevity would convey his seriousness.
"I'd like to echo Tabbatha Smith's sentiment. I believe that if you are religious, be tolerant. It is that simple. You should not resent people's differences; rather, you should marvel in the variety and splendor that our God created in each of our citizens!" The crowd applauded.
"I'd like to end this speech by talking about religious outreach. I believe every President, regardless of party, should reach out to to various religions. This position will dialog with religious leaders so we can further understand their beliefs. However, and make no mistake about it: Any expression of intolerance will NOT be tolerated by my administration!" The crowd rose to their feet. "Thank you! And God Bless!"
