Do you believe the Bible?

From last night’s GOP debate:

“Do you believe every word of this book… and I mean specifically, this book that I’m holding in my hand?”

The question was asked by 24 year old Joseph Dearing of Dallas. According to the DMN, he was disappointed in the answers given. He also hoped Ron Paul would have answered it. I’d be curious to know how he answered it as well.

I don’t know if it was part of Dearing’s point or not, but he appeared to hold up the Holy Bible, King James Version. The version itself was not mentioned during the answers or in the DMN story.

But here’s my question – does a person’s belief in Scripture, the Bible affect how you view them as a presidential candidate?
Is it important that they follow it, believe it’s the literal Word of God, read some of it or none of it?
