Bachmann Holding Out for Signal From God Before Mounting Presidential Bid
By Matthew DeLong 8/17/09 9:37 AM


The Minnesota Independent’s Andy Birkey points to a recent interview Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) gave to the conservative Website WorldNetDaily, in which Bachmann said she will only make a bid for president if God calls on her to run.

“If I felt that’s what the Lord was calling me to do, I would do it,” she answered. “When I have sensed that the Lord is calling me to do something, I’ve said yes to it. But I will not seek a higher office if God is not calling me to do it. That’s really my standard.

“If I am called to serve in that realm I would serve,” she concluded, “but if I am not called, I wouldn’t do it.

Should Democrats be concerned? As Birkey notes, God already told her to run for Congress.
