Christopher Columbus and the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election
We celebrated Columbus Day this week and many businesses and government offices were closed for the holiday. Honoring Christopher Columbus takes me back to a jingle we learned in grade school:
“In fourteen hundred and ninety two Columbus sailed the ocean blue.”
The name Christopher means “Light-bearer” and Columbus paved the way for the light of Jesus Christ to spread to the Western Hemisphere. Only one of our presidential candidates shares that sentiment–Donald Trump.
My thoughts on Christopher Columbus and the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
Two Paramount Issues
As we head into the final forty day stretch of the U.S. elections cycle, ads are being run everywhere before the American public on the “issues that matter.”
In my previous column, I compared Vice President Harris and former President Trump on ten important policies that greatly affect our future. The positions of the two candidates on these issues heavily favor voting for President Trump. His policies will improve the lives of everyday Americans and make the world a safer place.
But there are two paramount issues that stand above all else. They are the pillars of any great society.
The Religious Election & War for America
On September 12 I have surgery (a Nissen fundoplication) to help correct a nagging throat/vocal cord problem and will need some weeks to recover. (Thanks for your prayers.)
On September 10 the much-anticipated presidential debate between Kamala Trump and Donald Trump took place in Philadelphia.
I hoped you watched it–and prayed.
This year’s election is a religious one in the war for America’s future.
