One of my ultra-conservative Christian friends told me that he believes it is G_d’s will that Slobama is the president. He said G_d runs everything for a reason. G_d help us then.

It may be God's will in this sense...

2 Thessalonians 2:3

Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

2Th 2:9

[Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

2Th 2:10

And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

2Th 2:11

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

2Th 2:12

That they all might be damned who believed not the truth...

[ILS21R]

Your friend is correct.
