How does it correlate with the latest census data? Obviously the sex has a huge disparity, but what of it in terms of race and religious practice?

I don't know how well I actually trust the religious preference of government officials. I'd have no problems lying about being christian to boost election chances significantly, and I'm sure there's plenty of congressmen who did just that.
16% atheist? Huh? And 2007? I thought it was WAY lower.
Oh yeah. That's a thing.
Men are always going to outnumber women in politics, that doesn't mean that they should or that it's good that they do.
Maybe more minorities and women should run.It's pretty much impossible to get elected as an atheist though, unless you're in Cali.
Yes, and I'm sure they were never elected via the democratic process either. It's all a product of the patriarchal white Illuminati constantly looking to oppress black disabled otherkin lesbians.

Stark or Roark or something like that.

So? When it comes to elected representatives, I really don't see the problem.That might just be because I'm British, though, and the best Prime Minister we had was a woman.

And put it this way, I'd rather have Margaret Thatcher running the place than Tony Blair. I'd rather have Queen Victoria instead of King George. And the current Queen Elizabeth would do a better job than Cameron and his bumchum Osbourne.A great leader is a great leader regardless of if they have a donger or not. Same with a bad one, like Queen Mary was.
