		<description>Faith, no, unfortunately, I didn't take a vacation to the Caribbean, but I wish I could have.  I love the island. (Yes, there's really only one island.  They just change the sign daily, so you think your ship has stopped at a different port)  :-)

Yes, I read your encyclopedic entry #83.  I just chose, however, to stop arguing.  I knew it wasn't getting us anywhere.  You weren't convincing me, nor I you.  And let's face it, that's the result of most political arguing.  You're not going to convince me with your facts.

I felt my efforts were of better use elsewhere.  But thanks for asking.</description>

		<description>Are you out there, Wacky Thinker?

Maybe you've been on vacation in the Caribbean for the past 2 weeks, but --

You asked for help.
You needed reasons to vote *FOR* a candidate.
Did you read #83?

Your turn.</description>

		<description>1 old fan - I think the 27th amendment specifies that in a case such as that, Harry Peters is to be elected President by unanimous consent of Congress.  Biden (or Palin) would be out as VP and in a reaching-across-the-aisle gesture, Irishlad would be appointed VP.  Now that's a ticket I could get behind...so to speak.</description>

		<description>rr -- You said that Nancy Pelosi would be next in line for the presidency, after Biden.  Don't forget, that's only if new President Biden doesn't set a new vice president appointed before he dies.  

Here's a thought, what happens if a president-elect dies between the election and the inaugeration?  I don't think there's anything currently in the constitution or current law that speaks to such a possibility.  After Kennedy was assassinated, the current list was made, but it doesn't say if we'd have to have another election, or if the vice president-elect would be sworn in on January 20th.

Could be something Congress might need to ponder.  They don't seem to be doing much else these days, other than fighting and trying to get re-elected.</description>

		<description>Jim E. Davis - can't argue with you on that.  And look at the influence of leaders like William Wilberforce on the issue of slavery.

Here's an interesting book some readers might want to consider:  "Unchristian America: Living With Faith in A Nation That Was Never Under God" by Michael Babcock (Tyndale).  Babcock is a professor at Liberty University and he contends that the country has been in a post-Christian trend since Jamestown; consequently America was never really Christians' to lose.  He also reprimands those individuals and organizations that have engaged in political action at the expense of Biblical direction and authority.  It's an interesting read, not just in the context of the current election cycle.

And nonSGfan - I'm so pleased you made the 5th grade.  They must have been the happiest four years of your life.</description>

		<description>There are two Oral Roberts.  The humble boy from Ada Oklahoma who undoubtedly had an amazing healing ministry in the early days and the wealthy guy who built a hospital because...well, I don't know why someone would build a hospital if you can lay hands on them and heal them.  Such a mystery.

Back to the subject.  I don't have a problem with a minister going into politics.  Who would argue that Martin Luther King had no business getting involved?  I personally think it works best if a great leader listens and heeds the voice of the church.  Which is why Barack makes me uncomfortable as president.  His spiritual guidance has come from a true "whackjob", Jeremiah Wright.</description>

		<description>CVH, you're a moron.  Wade, I seen Oral Roberts lay hands on a boy with a tumor on his neck the size of a grape fruit and it disapeared. I just dont like to be that quick to call him a "whack job".</description>

		<description>NoN...  BIG Question HERE... You do not think Oral Roberts is a whack job???  Surely you can stipulate to that... and come on now... IT is not for YOU to go around saying who has done more for the cause of Christ vs. Some One else... that's that Elitism peaking through... take your meds and calm down. Check some spellings in an entry or 2 and listen to a Payne's song...maybe... WHO BUT GOD???</description>
