Marco Rubio interviewed on Hannity

Marco Rubio and his wife were interviewed on Hannity recently.  I was incredibly impressed with him.  He’s very articulate, humble, sincere and had an incredible way of drawing people in and relating to them.  I think he’d be a fine running mate for Mitt Romney.

On the flip side there was his wife.  Now she was clearly nervous, but she came across as inarticulate as well.  Even someone who was nervous would be able to answer questions even if she stumbled over her words.  Mrs. Rubio appeared not to know the answers to questions.  It was as if she’d never thought about them before. Though she will not be running, she will be expected to campaign with him and answer a few questions now and again.  She’ll need some coaching if he is Romney’s running mate.

The video is about 40 minutes, but very enlightening about the man who may become the next vice president of the United States.

What do you think?  Does a Vice Presidential candidate’s wife need to be more articulate?  Or do you think it isn’t material to the campaign?

Poignant video 4 days before Michael Jackson’s Death

Yesterday I posted about the 911 call that told of Michael Jackson’s death.  Many have asked me to comment on his life, but I really didn’t know enough about him to do that.  I do believe he was a troubled man and I know he didn’t know the Lord as his Savior.

I did wonder at the differences surrounding the death of both of those pop stars on Thursday. Farrah Fawcett had a very strong Christian faith (at least at the end of her life.) and I do believe it helped to keep her grounded and I am sure it was a comfort to her as she was going through the struggle known as cancer.  Michael Jackson was not a Christian.   Sean Hannity asked Reverend Al Sharpton what he thought the differences were between his having to deal with fame in the public eye as a famous figure and Michael Jackson’s struggle with fame as a pop star.  He said it was the fact that he was grounded in his faith.  I don’t tend to agree with many of the things Reverend Sharpton has said over the years, we are politically different, but his statement was so true no matter your political persuasion!

Then yesterday a Twitter friend, Duong Sheahan, sent me this video.   It’s of a pastor who is talking about how Mr. Jackson’s life might have been different if he had known The Father, Almighty God.  So for today, Defending the Faith SONday I thought I would post the video for your consideration.

No matter how our earthly father or the world may treat us, our Heavenly Father is bigger than all!
