MEDIA ADVISORY, August 29 /Christian Newswire/ -- Today John McCain picked Sarah Palin to be his Vice Presidential running mate. Sarah Palin, Governor of Alaska, is a Christian and is well known for her pro-life stand and her fiscal conservatism.
 
"John McCain is to be commended on his choice of Sarah Palin, a true Christian for Vice President," said Dr. Gary Cass, Chairman and CEO of the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission.  "Palin, an evangelical who is pro-life and pro-marriage, meets all the criterion that CADC set forth for a VP pick. Unfortunately, Obama chose Joe Biden, a liberal Catholic, who is not in compliance with Christian moral teaching on abortion or homosexuality."
 
The Christian Anti-Defamation Commission initiated a non-partisan "True Christian Vice President" campaign this past spring. Both major party candidates were encouraged to select someone that was a born again Christian, who was pro-life and pro-traditional marriage.
 
Sarah Palin has been aptly described as "a God fearing, gun totting, former beauty queen." In her high schools years she was President of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and seems to have a bona fide Christian testimony.
