The Observation Deck

Obama (clicky)

’We need a president who’ll have the strength and courage to go toe-to-toe with the leaders of rogue nations, because that’s what it takes to protect our security,“ the Illinois senator told Democrats at a rally in Des Moines, Iowa.

“That’s what I’ll do as your next commander in chief.â€Â

It would be nice to have a president that is not connected to good ole boy network.

it would be great for a president to do that. but it is generally considered a breach of protocol. They've got to have a series of lower level ministers speak with the other guys ministers.

I don't know if this is a holdover from the days before telephones and railroad travel.

In the United States' own case, we're better off this way. Shills like George Bush and George Bush Jr and Reagan. would be totally walked over in regular face to face dialogues with other leaders. They function better riding the enormous inertia of the system.

I am sorry our president is afraid to speak directly with other national leaders directly more often.
