Something rare happened on the National Mall Sunday. Power knelt. The President of the United States, the Vice President, the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the Director of National Intelligence, and the Speaker of the House all gathered — not for a summit, not for a ceremony of state — but for prayer. The occasion was “Rededicate 250:
