They also tithed $1,500 to St. John's Episcopal Church in DC, where the family has attended Sunday services.

GMB most likely to replicate this
Don't bother to compare GEJ's with Obama because you will be prompted to insult your president after a major injury of losing election.

We give to needy charity, not to overfed, bloated, crooked, pastors.

The last part we leave to Africans to fulfill. They're the fanatical Christians.
