I’m just going to throw this out. No one even has to reply. Just my two cents worth, even though two cents is no longer worth two cents. 
There are really only two ways to look at an election. You wake up the day after the election and you can say “Hurray, my candidate won”, then get dressed, have a cup of coffee, and get on with your day. Or you can get up and say “Rats!, my candidate lost” then get dressed have a cup of coffee, and get on with your day. The first presidential election I remember was Dwight versus Adlai. And all the others since. Sometimes, my candidate won and sometimes they lost. And every time, I, as well as the nation has survived. All ya’ll (Plural for everybody) have a goodern and have a Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas. (Oops, hope those last two words didn’t offend anyone.)
What about the election of 1860?
What makes you think that offends anyone?
I have heard that wishing someone a Merry Christmas does in fact offend some people. Just read where a student at UVa got in trouble for wearing a “MAKE AMERICA CHRISTIAN AGAIN”. Someone on campus reported him and he had to report to the Office of Equal Opportunity and Civil Rights and that his hat might make people feel “uncomfortable”.
Since America as a country was never “Christian” there’s no way to make it Christian again and that slogan is clearly antagonistic to other religions.
Highly doubtful. The entire idea of the “war on Christmas” and “we’re not allowed to say Merry Christmas anymore” is simply hysteria by conservatives to foment outrage. There’s a large number of holidays around the same time as Christmas and many places ask employees to wish people “happy holidays” so as to include everyone no matter which holiday they’re celebrating.
I wish the Evangelical “Christians” would remember that.
