He talks about a "return" to bipartisan politics but that's exactly what takes place presently. <BR/><BR/>Obama shouldn't put Kennedy in the same league as Bush senior or Reagan. Reagan IMHO made a few foreign policy mistakes but he was uncompromising when challenging the Soviet Union. Many people think that Kennedy stopped a nuclear holocaust but I think he may have facilitated one because of his weak stand on communism. Bay of Pigs is about as courageous a Kennendy got. In reality it was more an act of cowardice. During the Cuban missile crisis he did the very least that was required. If Nixon was in power, Krustiev would have never entertained the idea of putting missles in Cuba. <BR/><BR/>Obama should get a grip and stop speaking of Bush's failed policies. Nothing has failed. The expectations may have been a little optimistic but there have been unexpected payoffs as well. <BR/><BR/>There is more pro U.S. governments in the world today than there was during the last term. Whether it is because of respect, fear, or commonality...I don't care. Obama is wrong once again.<BR/><BR/>RikAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
