A challenge- name ONE single president who never mentions
Advertisements [?]
God, or a personal belief in a "higher power" in ANY of his political discourse.

Go right back to George Washington himself-
I've looked, I cannot find one-

While 'religion' has never seemed as oppressive and suffocating in the political arena as it is today- I have yet to find one single president who did not make mention to 'God' or "Creator"s or "Higher Power"s something that is often seen as 'nut job' talk by several posters here at DU-

I in NO way advocate a 'national religion'- but I also object to the disdain and judgmental attitude that anyone who dares suggest that having a 'spiritual' aspect to ones life, equates with insanity-

Any Takers?

JFK invoked God, very directly far more than I would EVER have thought-
But he's not alone- and not the only Democrat to do so.
