...work in support of the Millennium Development Goals, the foundation will use its funds-it aims to build up a war chest of several hundred million dollars-to work with others active in the developing world. Rick Warren's Saddleback Church, for example, uses church-based clinics to provide basic health care in Africa. (Warren will serve on the foundation's advisory board.) I spoke by phone recently to Ari Johnson, 25, a Harvard medical student now working in Mali, West Africa, with Project Muso Ladamunen, a small Washington-based organization, who made Blair's point...
Already established as perhaps the most important voice in contemporary American Evangelical Christianity, Rick Warren last week pressed the button that he hopes will take his "brand" to the ends of the earth.

The sudden house-cleaning has raised an awkward question: Why is McCain seemingly drawn to people from the world's second-oldest profession? (Campaign manager Rick Davis and top strategist Charlie Black are both former lobbyists.) Some suggest the flap represents the latest example of McCain's famous inattention to detail--a potential vulnerability in the campaign, and in the White House...
