What in the WORLD does the character or beliefs of people like Washington and Jefferson and Lincoln have to do with anything today. They have been rotting in their graves for over a century and people idolatrously  worship their names. America is a nation of lunatics with prophets and apostles and incarnations on the brain and they imagine that one single married man (sexually as pure as the driven snow, of course) can save the nation or the world in 8 short years of a two-term office.
