according to the article, the event wasn't meant to be political in nature. He just happen to be inviting everybody he knows to pray for the well being of the nation (so nothing really to do with politics unless you call mass congregation of religious faiths a recruiting party, which i suppose it could be) o_o
Now if he made this mandatory (and/or forced) for the general public (or those who aren't of the same faith as he) in the U.S. THEN it would violate the "separation of church and state" clause. As of right now, it's nothing more than a rally for the christians in texas that like the governor.
