Today is a rare day. It's a day when two religions traditions will coincide. Muslims are fasting for Ramadan, and Jews for Yom Kippur. In St. Louis, Mo., the two faiths recently joined forces to defend a group of citizens. Weekend America's Kelly McEvers brings us the story.
How many images of Barack Obama and John McCain have we each seen in the last month? How many sound bites have we heard from them? Hundreds? Thousands? Politics aside, this has got to do some strange things to our brains. It has to affect our sub-conscious on some basic level. So we want to know, Are you dreaming about the candidates? Has Obama or McCain or Biden or Palin crept into your R.E.M. State? Maybe in a toga? Or scuba gear?
Skip back-and-forth through stories, see images on iTunes and on your iPod -- all with better sound quality.
