"We need Christian men and women running for school boards," Franklin Graham.
Franklin Graham is calling for Christians to race for their local school boards to prevent what he says is LGBT indoctrination. The 65-year frail Christian evangelical activist made his stunning remarks in response to a Fox News fable that claims a Pennsylvania school board showed what parents are calling bullying "LGBT advocacy" videos.

"He sees the words 'LGBT' and automatically thinks of sex or 'recruitment.'"McEwen notes that "perhaps the opinion that Graham is angry that the school district is attempting to keep LGBTQ kids safe from bullying isn't that farfetched to contemplate."
