Evangelical leaders to media: Stop pigeonholing us

After we blogged about the flawed exit polls that Republicans but not Democrats if they were evangelical or born-again, a wave of interest and outrage spread throughout the blogosphere, the media and the evangelical community.

One day later, a diverse group of evangelical leaders has submitted a letter to the polling and political directors of ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX, NBC and the AP, calling on them to ask the evangelical ID question to Democratic as well as Republican primary voters.

The signatories are an impressive roster of prominent evangelicals: Joel Hunter, David Neff, Jim Wallis, Brian McLaren, Randy Brinson, David Gushee, Randall Balmer, Glen Stassen and Paul Corts.

Here's a generic copy of the letter each executive received.

Evangelicals are not led by MEN only. Get some women leaders on this list as well.
