President Obama is not just a racial trailblazer, but some say a racial pioneer as well. No president has ever shared his type of Christianity, historians say. Some say he may revive a form of Christianity that once dominated America.

The Gospel according to Obama
By John Blake, CNN

President Barack Obama was sharing a pulpit one day with a conservative Christian leader when a revealing exchange took place.

Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback, a conservative Christian who has taken public stands against abortion and same-sex marriage, had joined Obama for an AIDS summit. They were speaking before a conservative megachurch filled with white evangelicals.

When Brownback rose to speak, he joked that he had joined Obama earlier at an NAACP meeting where Obama was treated like Elvis and he was virtually ignored. Turning to Obama, a smiling Brownback said, “Welcome to my house!”

The audience exploded with laughter and applause. Obama rose, walked before the congregation and then declared:

“There is one thing I have to say, Sam. This is my house, too. This is God’s house.”

1. Yesterday this very same article was entitled: "Is Obama the wrong kind of Christian"

Obviously the Corporate News Network has thought to reconsider their incendiary title.

Link to yesterday's thread:

Very telling that CNN has retitled.

2. Very telling, indeed. I had missed that original headline.
