  • Transcript of Dr. Pat Robertson's Speech on the Role of Religion And
    DR. PAT ROBERTSON TRANSCRIPT WILLIAM & MARY SPEECH ON THE ROLE OF RELIGION AND THE DEATH PENALTY Dr. Robertson: I'm very honored and delighted to be with you today on this important topic that you're to discuss. I want to talk a little bit about the role of religion and the death penalty—but I'd like to tell you some personal experiences because they have touched my heart, perhaps more than just a cold understanding of what the Bible says or Christian ethics say. About 15 or 17 years ago, I was in the maximum-security prison in Raford, Florida, and after I had spoken to the inmates, and had several interviews for our television program, I was permitted to go back into the death row. It was a very sobering sight, because just down the hall from where I was was the electric chair, you could see that rather grim room. And there were 2 men that they had asked me to talk to. One was a young man in his mid-twenties who had been a contract killer for organized crime. He had dispatched at least 20 people to the next world as a cold-blooded killer. He was there on death row awaiting execution. The other man was a rather simple soul who had discovered his wife having an affair with another man, at least that's my understanding, and in a fit of rage, he killed her. In the subsequent trial, he had received the death penalty for his action. Both of these men had had profound religious conversions.

  • Iowa Caucus Results
    ELECTIONS 377 CAUCUS RESULTS Democrats Note: Delegate strength figures are projections by the Iowa Democratic Party of the percentage of state convention delegates each candidate controlled as a result of strength shown at the caucuses. In 1972 and 1976, the Iowa Democratic Party also projected the national delegates won based on the strength shown at the caucuses. In 1984 and 1988, the News Election Service (N.E.S.) also conducted straw polls. Since both the Iowa Democratic Party and N.E.S. results depend on volunteer reporting, the results are never complete. In 1992, a N.E.S. straw poll was not conducted.
