Jamie Foxx may have gone to far at the Soul Train Awards when he was welcomed by a massive applause and said, "It's like church over here. It's like church in here. First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior Barack Obama."
Although it may seem like he was referring to President Barack Obama as the "messiah" he did take a pause between "God" and the rest of his comments. Perhaps just a slip up or the world blowing this out of proportion, but Foxx comments wasn't taken lightly by Noel Sheppard who responded to his comments saying, "I guess Obama really IS the messiah."
Foxx is not the only person expressing his excitement about the re-election of Obama while making a correlation to religious figures. Barbara A. Taylor,Florida A&M professor called Barack Obama an "apostle" who was sent by God in order to build a political heaven on earth, "Then, as I began to contemplate ways to assist Barack in his 2012 re-election bid something miraculous happened. I felt God's Spirit beckoning me in my dreams at night. Listening, cautiously, I learned that Jesus walked the earth to create a more civilized society, Martin [Luther King] walked the earth to create a more justified society, but, Apostle Barack, the name he was called in my dreams, would walk the earth to create a more equalized society, for the middle class and working poor."
