This is the kind of president I want!<BR/><BR/>I actually integrated the article and some information from a book for class for a post on a class blog: http://evangelicalpoliticalanalysis.wordpress.comAshleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08739905207888101496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24215087.post-74645979538638778592008-10-13T20:04:00.000-05:002008-10-13T20:04:00.000-05:00Time and time again, I find myself REALLY "liking"...Time and time again, I find myself REALLY "liking" Obama. In fact, I "like" him more than I have ever "liked" McCain...and yet I do not have a sense of deep peace at voting for this likeable man, even when I hear about likeable words from him.

Will voting for a different candidate who has little chance of winning send enough of a message that we need more from our candidates? I don't know, but I continue to reflect upon this and appreciate all input, such as this fascinating reference.
