In just three short weeks, Barack Obama will be sworn in as the 45th President of the United States, and shortly thereafter the economy will miraculously heal itself, all violence will come to an abrupt halt here and abroad, hurricanes will be harnessed for green energy and cause us no further harm, butterscotch will flow from our rivers and ice cream cones will be plucked ripe from trees. And all with a wave from Barack Obama's majestic hand. It truly will be the beginning of a new age.

But, for now, we've asked you to choose some of the incoming president's best messiah moments from the past year. Here were the nominees…

* Stating "Contrary to the rumors you've heard, I was not born in a manger. I was actually born on Krypton and sent here by my father, Jor-el, to save the planet Earth." at the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner (thecheeseclub_vp)

* Speaking to about a quadrillion gushing fans in Berlin, Germany. (Bearness)

* Having a German journalist report hustle her way into his gym to report on his "well-trained arms" and "his tight rear view." What a man! (Giovanna)

* Saying "This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal," while on the campaign trail. (J)

Behold! Today is a day of celebration! For the Lord your God has seen fit to send us a great and noble savior, and I don't think I need to tell you what His name is do I?

No, not Jesus.

I'm talking about Barack Obama.

And to glorify The Black Lamb of God, The President of Presidents, we're asking you to nominate the Best Barack Obama Messiah Moments of 2008. You know, those moments in which you just had to step back and say, "Um, what exactly are we talking about here?"

So, I say unto thee, make your nominations now. And watch this…

But what was her best? You decide…

We asked you to vote on the Best Political Faux Pas of 2008, and you have decided.

* John Edwards

* Sarah Palin

* Joe Biden
