of we the people going ga-ga over well READ speeches/promises.
Obama and his team I fear do really think they can pull off the populist approach to the rest of the world. They will smile with him all the while laughing at him.
Do you remember the political cartoon from many....MANY years ago showing Kruschev smiling big with his hand out to shake with Uncle Sam with his other hand behind his back holding a bomb with a fuse lit. Well that's where we are again.
