President-Elect Obama

From looking at the choices President-elect Obama has made concerning the invocation etc for his inauguration that he is attempting to be a President for all people. He has chosen an anti-abortion minister, a gay bishop and a female minister. Of course the only clergy missing is a Catholic Bishop, a Muslim and a Jew. Whether that was intentional or not remains to be seen. But it is food for thought. It would be an opportunity to show his respect for all popular religions and not just those that were chosen for political correctness.

Whether you like him or hate him, one thing President Bush did was govern to protect this country and not for popularity. If President-elect Obama wants to govern according the popularity poles, he will be putting himself first over the country and we will be heading down a path of future 9/11 events. Not making the tough decisions because it may affect your popularity will invite less monitoring of those that want to destroy us and increase the threat against this country both internally and externally. I hope President-elect Obama sees the light and puts the country first and political party way back. This country and the safety of all of us is in the balance.
