How quickly things change. It wasn’t that many years ago that Barack Obama as a candidate, and then as President of the U.S. was lauded with praise and descriptives that, if applied to a pontiff, would have caused many to wonder, “Has the Church declared the Pope to be the Fourth Person of the Trinity?” In 2008 which in the Age of the Internet is roughly 259 years ago the victorious Obama told an ecstatic crowd in St. Paul, Minnesota, “America, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page on the policies of the past. Our time to bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face. Our time to offer a new direction for the country we love.”
