    About that Liberty U commencement, one has to realize that Mark DeMoss, former aide to Jerry Falwell, was a 2008 advisor to the Mitt campaign and never really stopped. He runs a PR firm for religious groups. He’ll never woo this evangelical, who follows the money right back to the Keynesians at the Fed.
