Oh, I’ll bet Bubba shows. He never misses an opportunity to be front and center. He’s the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral.

Obama is way too busy planning on how to get his Presidency back

POTUS part deux would be small potatoes. Word is he's said he wants to be UN Sec. General. Or translated - leader of the world.

I doubt that Obama has any more desire to be on the same stage with Franklin Graham or Donald Trump as they have to be on the stage with him. Winner all around.

I wouldn’t expect him to in the first place. What a nothing-burger. We should change to national motto for “In God We Trust,” to “You owe me an apology.”

If Billy Boy attends I wonder if he’ll be sporting his oversized Bible as a fashion accessory.

Yes, Bubba came to Charlotte to ‘pay his respects’ to Billy Graham in news today.

The last thing Billy Graham need is to have Satan sitting in a pew at his funeral.

Of course his “office” had to announce it - no one would have noticed otherwise.

I have read that LBJ was the president Graham was closest to....

I'm surprised to find out that Billy Graham and LBJ were long-time friends. But Graham most likely grew up Democrat, and had that in common with Johnson.

Graham sure never had a kind compassionate word for Nixon during the commies take down of him.

I really don't remember it that way. Graham and Nixon were together a lot, especially early on in Nixon's White House years. Maybe Graham felt used. Maybe he was embarrassed by Nixon's recording their conversations, which were later made public during the Watergate. investigation. But I don't remember any hostility between the Nixon and Graham.

Used to call Obama a Muslim, but I have changed my mind. Obama is neither Christian, Muslim, Jew, or any other religion. He worships only two evil doers, Himself & Satan, The Devil. Honoring Billy Graham is simply a waste of his time. Case closed

I guess Graham backed away from Nixon during Watergate. But that's understandable. Maybe Graham felt used.

I don't remember any overt hostility between the Nixon and Graham, though.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the family has quietly indicated that the POS would not be welcome.

Of course B.Hussein O. will not be there...He doesn't have the body guards he did when president, and he is afraid of his own shadow..He lives in Fear currently, as soon he will be put under Oath and questioned by Congress...wait and see...

As for Hillary, she doesn't want the public see her wearing a leg brace after four months plus wearing one for a ‘stumped toe’...we are not to question her health problems at all...lol...Bill Clinton was in Charlotte NC , at the Billy Graham Library this morning, before the public lines were allowed in...Bill looking on the thin side..wondering what his problem is??

Just my opinion and really don't care who reads it or not...We still have Freedom of Speech, at least until Nov. 2018...when liberals think they will take over and control the Nation...DJT has other intentions..betcha.
