Every time certain other politicians burp there are a dozen threads and scores of discussion comments. But when the President of the United States gives a serious, intellectually stimulating, big picture speech on the world and its future, bupkus.

This is a speech well worth listening and responding to. Let's show we can be serious for one minute, and not just horse-race cheerleaders or google-eyed fan boyz and girlz.

Not that anyone cares, but at least this serves as a kick.
