So, I suppose that means, that because God was interested in which kings did "what was right" and "what was evil" in his eyes, that God has abandoned such interest in contemporary rulers just because they don't don the title "king," eh???
Character, integrity, and ethics is just a "wind-blown" thing that applied only "once upon a time" to rulers, eh???

You suppose 100% incorrectly. As I stated, and which you fail to address, were two points, God doesn’t have Christian Kings to rule over us. Second, we can have leaders with whom, like Cyrus, we don’t have to share their religion, but they are tolerant to the rest of us where it counts, I can still go along and enjoy my beer occasionally, and Romney could care less, because that’s how he is. Obama, on the other hand, doesn’t share an interest in leaving others’ personal beliefs be, so similar to voting Bush II, a born-again Christian, over Kerry, a Catholic like me, I wouldn’t mind voting Romney, a person who doesn’t share my faith, but can at least pay me due respect over Obama, who cares that I share his beliefs about same-sex marriage, partial-birth abortion, and so on. I would vote a Jew or a polytheist over a Christian if the former were more competent and respectful, so even under the assumption that Romney is a polytheist, I really could care less.
Second, as you feel the need to disregard, commander-in-chief is not equivalent to preacher-in-chief.
