Wasn't it refreshing to have an American president make such a pleasantly anticipated speech to an audience of Muslims who received him with acclamation? It's time that we joined other countries in realizing we are not the center of the world, and not every world citizen wants to be like us. We need to tend to our great problems at home and start practicing what we espouse in caring for our most vulnerable citizens.

  1. It's been refreshing just to have a president who doesn't oversimplify, doesn't condescend, doesn't demean, isn't self-righteous, doesn't pander to racists, the NRA, and the religious right, and who doesn't say irresponsible things like "bring it on!" or stupid ones, like "nukulur!" In short, it's nice to have a real president again - someone we can respect and feel proud of - someone who is a genuine leader.
