Barack Obama

What a difference a year makes: The results may not yet add up to a great deal in terms of shifting the values of the various Government officials but the unequivocal way that Obama has set out his stall at the UN this week, putting increasingly confident distance between himself and the previous US regime has to be respected. I hope he can inspire some more of those "bought and paid for" Senators and Congressmen to start doing what their electors hoped they might when they elected them.
