The man who once walked on water has been limping of late, his feet weighed down by a whole catalogue of sinking issues - race, elitism, an excess of academic aloofness in times of gritty gravity.

That is dangerous and that is why one recent opinion poll suggested 15% of Americans still believe - astonishingly - that he is a Muslim................ ends.......
God may bless America but only the spirit of the founding fathers will save America.......these coming months will test that spirit in a way not seen since the sixties......Martin Luther King climbed a mountain 45 years ago, looked over, saw the promised land......and paid the price...this time around let the people not the gun speak ......loud and clear........
