Can a pastor become a politician without lying?

[Brian_Bishop]

It comes down to personal resolve, I believe. There is no place where standing for the truth is totally impossible. We like to say that nothing is impossible. So, why not maintain the same attitude here? People ask the same question about lawyers. But the same is the case. A truthful politician however will have a very rough road. The art of diplomacy and people pleasing is a really difficult one. And it is even more difficult when you're a man of integrity.
