Is America a Christian Nation?

I'm getting tired of the whining people bellyaching that Obama said "America is not a Christian country."
People get PO'd when someone says "America is not a Christian nation." Well guess what... It isn't. When our founders moved to America it was for religious freedom. The 'God' they brought with them, for the most part, was not Christian. They had many biblical values, but if they were put to on trial to find if they were Christian, they would not be convicted. With few exceptions, the churches they brought with them are the same as exist today. The only difference is they were much more fundamental. But were they Christian?
A lot of our Founders and better statesmen believed in living by biblical principles and values based in the Judeo/Christian law, but that makes them moral, not Christian.
What is Christian?
The general consensus is "Do good.", "Give to the poor.", "Obey the Ten Commandments.", "Don't hurt your neighbor.", "Go to church (when it's convenient).", and know that a loving God won't throw anyone into hellfire. These are the words spouted by liberation theology, the modern liberal church, the very people who have torn down crosses, burned churches, and removed the Ten Commandments, nativities, and crosses from public places. There aren't words strong enough to respond to these lies. Satan has been spreading these lies all the way back to the seating of the pope and the establishment of ecumenical churchianity intended to pollute and replace Biblical Christianity. Their doctrine points their fingers at Christians and screams "Thou shalt not judge!" when they refuse to judge themselves. "By their fruits ye shall know them." When Christianity is turned into religion, and religion becomes politically correct, Christ is lost. Christian, after all, means "Follower of Christ." It does not mean interpreter of the Word, builder of denominations, ruler of church-controlled nations, etc. If it's not in the Bible, it's not Christian. Period.
There is a belief that NBC, or somebody, did a survey which showed that 84% of Americans believe in God. That's a misrepresentation. First, NBC didn't do the survey. Second, 84% people responded claim to believe in "god". That doesn't mean it is the Christian God, and it doesn't mean these people even have a workable definition of what their god is.
