They say, Gene, that if Jesus Christ was the Messiah, and he appeared 
again today as the Son of God, the Savior of Mankind, that no one would 
believe him.  I think that's accurate.

Pickiness?
You are right, we will never find the 'perfect' President-everyone has 
faults, but up until very recently, anytime someone pointed out a fault 
in Sen. Obama, someone else made an excuse for him, like he was a golden 
child that needed protection.  I just don't hold him as sacred as some 
do, that is all.  I see Barack and Hillary in the same light.  I see 
McCain in a different light, but that's not a better light from my 
perspective.   If I am ruffling too many feathers and you want me to 
play nice to our future President(s)..(that's plural because both 
Hillary and Barack are young and will see many more elections..if not 
now...<g>), I will, but Gene, I have to tell you that I think the guy is 
a false prophet of sorts.  That's not polarization, that's just my 
opinion.  I'm not following the homestead party line on this one....I'm 
marching to the beat of a different drummer, and I think the guy is full 
of hope and promise and naivety that he can't deliver on...I'm sure he 
is a nice, decent human being, but in today's world, that doesn't make a 
great President.
