Remember how upset Evangelicals got at Clinton when he chose to call his plan “a new covenant”? How on earth did this not provoke a reaction?:
Tomorrow is September the 12th. A milestone is passed, and a mission goes on. Be confident. Our country is strong. And our cause is even larger than our country. Ours is the cause of human dignity; freedom guided by conscience and guarded by peace. This ideal of America is the hope of all mankind. That hope drew millions to this harbor. That hope still lights our way. And the light shines in the darkness. And the darkness will not overcome it.
The messianic nation-state at its finest.
