How serious Obama's condition was, how much he, poor thing, suffered because of an amnesia that affected him while plans for the platform were being laid, can clearly be inferred by two essential key elements: G-d and Jerusalem. Good heavens, Dr., how could I possibly forget about them? Is is due to aging? Quick, medications. He actually did recover.
It is unknown whether G-d personally reminded him that the United States would make a huge blunder by forgetting that without his blessing, you are not going that far. At any rate, the language saying that government needs to give people “the chance to make the most of their G-d-given potential” was reinstated. This wording is slanting of course, it is nonetheless present. Also Jerusalem was restored to the capital of the State of Israel. This did not occur because good sense prevailed; it was rather an expression of panting opportunism, as calling again your husband “honey” after repeatedly mistaking his name with your lover's. The doubt still persists, as per to whom you really love. The unbearable boorishness of this faux pas, the fear of having to pay too dearly for it, as well as the desperate protests of left wing Jews forced to re-write the platform and now, as it was in 2008 “Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel”. Delegates were called for a voice vote (by saying out loud “yes” or no”) three times, “yes' and 'no' votes seemed to equal each other.
Eventually, convention Chair Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa established that also nods were to be taken as a vote in favor. Yay. In. But it looks unlikely that Democrats who care for Jerusalem as capital might lightheartedly vote for Obama. The president's faux pas is the accomplishment of a five year-old story of aversion toward Israel. No matter what he says to that.
