God Bless America
Picking up a little side note regarding Obama's feelings or thoughts that we are not a Christian nation:The three branches of government come straight out of the Bible. But the Founders were careful to state they did not want any religion to have control. This statement was expounded upon by Thomas Jefferson and has been mis-represented ever since. This is common knowledge, though sadly, kids are not learning this in school these days. It is not something that needs documentation and research. But we are emphatically Christian - otherwise, we would not be here. America would be French owned, or something, as the Pilgrims would likely not have come over to America for the reason of escaping England and the rule of the Catholic Church.
So, we are a Protestant nation - Christian has negative "extreme right, evangelistic" overtones - and the Founders were a mix of protestant faiths. I do not believe the Protestant faith to be the rule of the land, but to rule the land according to the foundations I believe a Protestant would be the person to do so - and who would understand the real meaning of T. Jefferson's "wall of separation."
The ACLU and the far left have done a great job in removing God from everything. It is sad. Because of the removal of God from America, we are becoming less and less morally solid. America used to be a nation set apart for its compassion, moral directives, philosophy and just plain backbone.
If nothing else this scares me with even McCain. I am not sure where this guy is in the grand scheme of things.
Bottom line, our country needs a leader that will be fiscally responsible, check the courts and keep them in line, stop bad law, remove the government, reform taxes and tax imports. Forget tax the rich - there's only about 5% of those and they are smart enough to use legal business maneuvers to hide money - you would too! We need a leader that protects the heart of America, stands against impostors, mockers and saboteurs.
Just not sure we will get one. God Help Us...

Some of your comment could apply to Australia, as well. The country was founded on Christian notions and principles and the so-called 'free-thinking' left have been trying to undermine it since. In the 1950s, it was still fairly safe for children under 10 years of age to be away from home for a number of hours without parental accompaniment. Nowadays, children are even abducted from their homes, because the influence of Christianity has been pared back. One wonders if people will learn before it has cost them terribly.
Keep praying, brother!
