Coming Together

OBAMA has a couple of qualities which i think make for a good president. Hew plays basketball, as you may know, and is decent, maybe comparable to an average high school player.He plays regularly, and he likes to play with good players.

Everyone he plays with is younger, bigger, more athletic than obama, and that's the way he wants it. If you take it easy on him because he's president, you don't get invited back. no special treatment. Obama hates that. He  likes guys who play hard, to win.

At one point i recall hearing his siter, or some close family member, say that she has never seen barrack obama angry. always cool, always under comtrol. wasn't it at columbia law school where he served as the peace maker between the liberals and conservatives? Good qualities for leadership.

Conservatives might be reluctant to admit that obama has any good qualities, other than the ability to lie well. And that's too bad. Its too bad when we close our minds in bias. I recall how inspirational Bush 43 was right after nine one one, but my liberal friends would never admit this.

"Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall," was pretty cool too. the fact that it was delivered by one of my least favorite presidents is  immaterial. we will not have a united america until we are all willing to accept the truth spoken by those who disagree with us.

we must stop dividing the world into good people who agree with me, and bad people who don't, and see everyone as good, worthy of communication, and compassion.

seldom have we had a united america, we must admit. pearl harbor, nine eleven, and so forth. One thing you russians should know about us americans is that we are always fighting among ourselves.

there are people all over the united states who evidently seriously want to secede from the nation, like the confederacy did back in teh day. folks in texas, lot of 'em, and one dude, i recall, out in the desert, who proclaimed his land to be a new country.

 so far, their petitions have been denied in washington; if anyone tries to leave, the rest of us'll gang up, and put a stop to it, like we dun in  sixty five when push come to shove..what about you kind souls in germany and russia? do you ever have this sort of nonsense? Please tell me you do, it would make me feel batter.
