Apr 2015

Thank you - thank you Surya for your wonderful post - and Thank you Mr. President and Secretary of State John Kerry - for all you do against all odds...

What a great way to start the day.. makes all the hate go away....and start anew..... April 2, 2015 (agreement reached), April 3, 2015, sighs of relief everywhere....

Yes, we have the right man in the White House...a man for all seasons..and yes, we were right - electing President Barack Hussein Obama -TWICE - ....a defining moment....and a day of reflection for me...
