DNC Drops ‘God-Given’ From Party Platform

The Democratic National Committee has removed the term “God-given” from its platform.

This is the paragraph that was in the 2008 platform, the Christian Broadcasting Network reports:

“We need a government that stands up for the hopes, values, and interests of working people, and gives everyone willing to work hard the chance to make the most of their God-given potential.”

The paragraph now says this:

“We gather to reclaim the basic bargain that built the largest middle class and the most prosperous nation on Earth – the simple principle that in America, hard work should pay off, responsibility should be rewarded, and each one of us should be able to go as far as our talent and drive take us.”

Was this done at the suggestion of the president?
