Bush said he heard god talk to him and tell him what to do as he was walking
outside in the driveway, if I remember correctly, of the White House. He
went on to describe the "exact words" god used to tell him what to do.
Of course, lots of ex-druggie/dry alcoholics hear voices, so he probably
did. Auditory hullucinations aren't all the uncommon for them.

I welcome Palin as a candidate, too. She brings even more diversity-it's a
real test.
As to God speaking directly to the president, realize that many Presidents
have claimed such-that's what a "personal relationship" with God means. It
is an inherent Christian belief that people can talk/pray to God and that
God will will speak back...maybe in a whisper, maybe in an action, maybe as
a lightning bolt, maybe as the voice of your conscious, but that he will
speak back. George Bush didn't invent that..(Al Gore did<G>)

All zealots are dangerous and must therefore be protected against. The
god-driven terrorism worldwide is proof for anyone with an open mind
that while a god-of-choice may well cause a happier life, that must be
a personal condition, not public.
I welcome Palin as a candidate. She will cause the god stuff to be
more fully discussed.
