"God, America may have sinned, but please do not punish us with Obama! "

I don't think that God is going to punish the entire country for the sins of the few. It is said that we have to account for our sins individually, not in a lockstep group.

America hasn't sinned, only individuals can sin and then try to pin the blame on America.

I think God leaves our daily lives up to us, and if Obama gets elected, it will be because of the decisions of a bunch of misguided people who promote and vote for him.

To say that "America" has sinned buys into all of the liberal arguments about an "evil America". Not unlike an adolescent who spouts "You don't love me, whaaaa" when they don't get their way.

As long as the left can guilt trip all of us into negative thinking about America, the longer they can lead us around by the hang-downs.

The good that America has done for the world far supercedes any wrongs she's done.

I would say “His people” have sinned, have fallen down in their duties -

destruction of the family
secularization of education
normalization of deviancy and evil
and finally
the deaths of MILLIONS of innocent babies for convenience.

Yes, “His people” are guilty of allowing this to come to pass in our land.

2 Chron 7:14 does not say “everyone” must humble themselves and turn to Him. Just “His people”. WE are responsible.
