Hello FlameFans,

My name is Gianpaolo Ciocco, and I am a senior Political Science major at Haverford College in Pennsylvania. I am currently writing my undergraduate thesis on the workings of faith-based political organizations, and this forum seems to be an active and vibrant community featuring discussion of several relevant groups, so I would very much appreciate it if any of you could take this survey that I am distributing as part of my research: https://haverford.us2.qualtrics.com/SE/ ... u1tDE5QLid The survey should only take a few minutes to complete, and all responses are completely anonymous unless you agree to a follow-up interview; even then, all responses will be confidential. Feel free to take the survey even if you are not a member of any Christian political organizations; all responses are welcomed and appreciated.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss this topic further, feel free to send me a private message. Thank you in advance to anyone who decides to take the survey; your help means a lot to me!

Sincerely,
Gianpaolo Ciocco

Paesano! You are welcome to ask questions on here as well. We love the dialogue.

Incidentally, I took the survey and it did in fact take just a few minutes. Based on the direction of the questions, I have a pretty firm feel for the direction of your thesis. I have a feeling that you will find most Evangelicals including those with ties to Liberty have a surprisingly diverse set of political views.

Much appreciated! My thesis is actually focused on a slightly different question, but I appreciate the feedback and the invitation for dialogue - which I will probably take you up on in the coming weeks.

I took the questionnaire for you. I don't know if I will be available when you are in town or not, but you can check with me when you come.

I took your survey and would be glad to meet with you. I happen to be on Spring Break that week, so it should be easy to catch up. The upper crust side side of my family lives in Haverford - a cousin that went to Haverford College and one that went to Bryn Mawr.

My PM inbox isn't activated, so if those of you who agreed to meet in person between March 8 and March 18 (and haven't received an e-mail from me) see this, you can send me an e-mail at gciocco@haverford.edu letting me know whether you would still be available - and, if so, what day(s) of the week would work best for you. A number of people expressed a willingness to meet, so I will make travel plans based on the responses I get.

Thanks again to everyone who's participated! I will definitely be in touch with those of you who provided your e-mail addresses, and may be posting further on here as well. (I will also take the donuts and cookies request into consideration...)

You need at least 5 posts to have you inbox activated. So post a few more times and you should be good to go.
