There was a moment of levity on Sunday night when Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was asked at a nationally televised faith forum whether she believed "God wants you to be president?"I'm glad she opted for grace and didn't deem herself the next divinely appointed President of the United States of America. Don't get me wrong: There is no endorsement I'd rather have. It's just kind of frowned upon when you tell the populace that God spoke to you and said He had picked you to lead this nation.
"Well, I could be glib and say we'll find out," Clinton said to laughter from the audience.
"But I -- I don't presume anything about God. I believe, you know, Abraham Lincoln was right in admonishing us not to act as though we knew God was on our side," she said.
