Answer: None of the Above

Question: Which politician am I counting on this election season to save this country?

Do not trust in rulers and in the sons of men,
In whom there is no salvation.
His breath shall go out of him,
and he shall return to his earth;
On that day all his thoughts shall perish.

Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob;
His hope is in the Lord his God,
Who made heaven and earth,
The sea and everything in them,
Who keeps truth forever,
Who executes justice for the wronged,
Who provides food for the hungry.

Ps. 145:3-7 (LXX)
