I'm just trying to follow your reasoning. So far I gather that we need to repent for our sinful ways to keep or get God's blessing but the founders were exempt from this and could get the so called blessing in spite of their sinful ways.

No that isn't what I'm saying. Of course we always need to be praying and repenting for our sins. That's a given for every Christian. We should be doing it on a regular basis. And maybe some need Cahn to tell them that. Good so now they know. But to be praying and repenting so America doesn't lose "the blessing" it had way back when presupposes that it had the blessing way back when. When was that exactly?
