What would Jesus do?

I know I promised that I wouldn't make a post on a political comment or like a political comment until the election was over. I was doing so good but then ... I got pissed off.

Today, I read a post that made my blood boil. Several years ago, I had a pastor who told our congregation that we should always pray for our president and the leaders of our county and state regardless of whether we voted for them. I've held true to that plea by Bro. Sammy Bell.

The post I read today was by someone who basically said that the only reason Obama stopped campaigning and visited the people affected by Hurricane Sandy was to help his campaign. People really? I remember that he came to Alabama after the tornado ravaged our state. Let's get real. If Romney were in office running as the incumbant he would have done the same thing.

When it comes down to it the president should always have the well being of the citizens of our great country uppermost in their minds. Personally, I think Romney will win this election and I will pray for him just as I have the presidents before him. Whoever is our next president will have my support and I will not talk badly about them.

I can't help but wonder if the contempt for Obama is racially motivated. If so, that is sad. I'm sure some of the votes for him will be racially motivated too. That also is sad. How about we forget all the hatred and vote for the person we think will do the best job, and then pray that out economy will improve. We should all learn to love our president. What would Jesus do?
