There is danger in placing divine importance on the shoulders of a political candidate. Not only is it theologically bankrupt in that it presumes that anyone can know God’s plan for us — and even more absurdly, that we can intuit how God feels about American elections — but it elevates support for a politician past any reasonable level.

How on earth does a 43-year-old man with a mullet and Louisiana drawl get a man like Bernie Sanders to call him “profound” on the online equivalent of a bachelor pad that’s sponsored by a men’s razor called “The Lawn Mower?” Was this just a one-time comment made by Von that caught the senator by surprise, or is Theo Von a legitimate journalist capable of generating relevant, thought-provoking and engaging discussion?
“Students may feel like I have to do it on my own, I need to solve it by myself, instead of asking for help,” Wainscott said. “Sometimes professors may not realize that you are shy to ask for help, and my advice for new students is that give yourself patience because it will take a little of time to get you done everything.”
