White House Admin Turns On Obama They Want To Bring Him Down, Reveal Michael R. Wear spent years working as a White House staffer before serving as President Barack Obamas faith outreach coordinator in the 2012 election. Now, hes just come forward to share his experience of Obamas approach to the Christian religion in his book, Reclaiming Hope: Lessons Learned in the Obama White House About the Future of Faith in America. Wear told a reporter at the Atlantic about what happened after he drew up a faith-outreach fact sheet describing the presidents views on poverty. The piece was called, Economic Fairness and the Least of These. Of course, Wear was referring to a line in the Bible in which Jesus commands his disciples to care for the least of these, or the poor and marginalized. The reference clearly went over the heads of the Obama administration. Another staffer repeatedly deleted the least of these, commenting, Is this a typo? It doesnt make any sense to me. Who/what are these? The Atlantic explained. Wear also commented that the Obama administration was unnecessarily antagonistic toward religious conservatives, especially when it came to abortion funding and contraception requirements. This attitude has now spread throughout the entire Democratic Partymaking no effort to connect to religious voters in the latest election. Reaching out to evangelicals doesnt mean you have to become pro-life, he argued. It just means you have too not be so in love with how pro-choice you are, and so opposed to how pro-life we are. Clearly, ignoring such an important part of the population did not end well. 81 percent of Evangelicals and a majority of Catholics ended up voting for Donald Trump.
