All Americans Have Common Interests

"So, let us not be blind to our differences—but let us also direct attention to our common interests and to the means by which those differences can be resolved."   -- John F. Kennedy (1917- 1963)

Obama's Promises Kept mostly. . .

In two years, President Obama has moved America forward, even though constantly thwarted by the Republican right-wing.  This was done by creation into law after successful passage through a hostile Congress of:

  • The Recovery Act
  •  Health Care Reform
  •  Wall Street Reform
  •  Repeal of 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'
Many things are still to be done, no doubt!

-also, include the new START Treaty!  It is landmark legislation for our national security. . . (addendum as of 02/11)

Look back on these two years by downloading a copy of a new White House report called "Promises Kept":

John F. Kennedy's Sad 20th c. Insight. . .

"It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war."   --John F. Kennedy (1917-1963)


This old 'realpolitik' must change.  Otherwise we are doomed!

The new START Treaty is the way forward.  Thanks, Mr. Obama. . . nary a republican vote.
