Just read that Hillary will be coming to Saddleback in the coming weeks for the AIDS conference. Should be awesome ... according to the article, other candidates have expressed interest and I'm hearing might confirm soon as well.
Presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., will attend a meeting on AIDS at the Saddleback Church hosted by pastor and "The Purpose Driven Life" author Rick Warren and his wife Kay, church officials announced Thursday.JG
"I commend Rick and Kay Warren for their work to fight HIV/AIDS," said Clinton, who is considered the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination. "Our churches have a powerful role to play in raising the consciousness of the nation and the world to this pandemic and urge compassion for the sick and the suffering."
The third annual Global Summit on AIDS and the Church will be held Nov. 27 through Dec. 1.
Other presidential candidates, including former Democratic North Carolina Sen. John Edwards; Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill.; former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani; Gov. Mike Huckabee, R-Ark.; and former Gov. Mitt Romney, R-Mass., also have expressed a desire to participate and are currently working on scheduling issues, according to the church.

Watch out for planted questions!
Will anyone dare ask her why she supports partial birth abortion? - At 11/15/2007, John Snyder said...

I hope people stick to the reason why she is here and will only ask questions about AIDS. I hope it will be a great summit. Last years was fantastic.

I am not a fan of Hillary at all...but I think the AIDS issue is something that we all, no matter our political party or religious beliefs should work together on, AIDS doesn't discriminate who it infects. It would be great to see people from both sides of the political isle united on this issue. It sounds like it's going to be a great summit!
