Good Morning, DU:

[grantcart]

65. I wish I had more time to follow the details of your struggle.

From a distance and only getting a brief chance to read the basics I have to say the fact that

you were so committed not to a position but to a dialogue, about communicating, about bridging across

positions and building on relations I was struck that it was very Obamaesque in its goals, very Ali in its courage, very

Ghandi in its methodology, and very Mandela in its tone.

I am guessing that you just saw it as very 'Waterman' but then I never knew your mentor.

When you are right then persist in dialogue without wavering and you will eventually be successful. Not in every detail but

you will have great influence.
