 | | Robertson concluded his remarks with a partisan jab at the Democratic Party, reflecting the fact that exploiting the problems of struggling schools and demanding taxpayer funded vouchers for religious and other private schools is a political wedge strategy for the Religious Right and its allies. |  | | In July 2003, Pat Robertson launched a 21-day "prayer offensive" aimed at the Supreme Court in which he urged his supporters to pray to God to remove liberal justices from the Court so that they could be replaced by right-wing ideologues. |  | | Pat Robertson responded to criticism from the Right regarding the Miers nomination and also offered a stern warning to those conservative senators who might be thinking of voting against her. |

 | | A yearlong investigation of televangelist Pat Robertson's activities in Africa is now over, but state officials are sitting on the final report pending a review by attorneys, reports the Virginian-Pilot newspaper. |  | | Both men received campaign contributions from Robertson during the 1997 statewide elections; in addition, Robertson was a member of Gilmore's transition-advisory team. |  | | Another aspect of the Robertson probe is the role of Virginia Attorney General Mark Earley, and Governor Jim Gilmore. |

| | Pat Robertson - General Teachings/Activities |
 | | Robertson has also stated that the Coalition's purpose is to "restore Godly principles and Godly people to all centers of influence, from the school house to the White House." The plan was to contact all churches and train Christians (including "pro-life Catholics") to be effective in the political arena and assist in voter registration. |  | | Later in the year of Robertson's ECT endorsement (early in October of 1994), Roman Catholic Bishop Walter Sullivan was allowed to celebrate mass for Regeant's Catholic lawyers and law students. |  | | When he ran for the Republican presidential nomination in 1988, however, he abruptly resigned his ordination, insisted that he was merely a media executive, and grew testy when anyone referred to him as a televangelist. |
