No one is trying to stop "brights" from being able to run for pres. People are free to judge who they will vote for and if they wouldn't vote for someone who is "bright" well then I guess you're going to have to work on your PR. Unfortunately for you most americans are religious/spiritual to some degree.
Personally, from my experience here on DU, I wouldn't vote for someone who is an atheist. I wouldn't trust them to be tolerant of others anymore than I trust the extreme religious right to be tolerant of others. I won't vote for the religious right either.
Now if there were a movement to ban atheists from public office, I would certainly fight that.
