Black Christians See No Clear Options Between Obama, Romney
With just 50 days until Americans go to the polls to select their next president, many black Christians find themselves in somewhat of an unusual predicament.

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is stepping up criticism of the White House's handling of foreign affairs in the Middle East in the wake of terrorist attacks on the U.S. embassies in Egypt and Libya that killed a U.S. ambassador.
