Barack is gone, and the Donald has taken over. The Obama Presidency is history. Enough has been said about all of that, but I must draw attention to a few important words that President Obama said in his parting address to the press.

Early, a week ago, Sunday, I had a rare weekend at home. I was up early doing my morning workout and watching the news. I was bored by a commercial interruption so decided, while caching my breath, to do a little channel surfing. It turns out that above Fox News on our satellite provider there

Americans have just been through a bruising Presidential election when it seemed that forces beyond the control of either candidate were compelling events. It was almost as if something supernatural were happening, and some self-described “prophets” are taking credit for just that. In reality it was just a long-silent electorate which expressed its will. As
