As a married father, great role model, to make that a part of his message to all americans the importance of family. One need to aim it at any group, just say this is important for social cohesion. It is important for outcomes and a lot more important than mrs. Obama speak out the lights in the campaign. If you want to improve life for case, give them a mother and a father and this president did not choose to do that. Follow up on that. If you look at barack obama who is so admired in the Africanamerican Community and other communities as well, you could argue he has a unique ability to make the case. The next president is a republican, scott walker. Fatherhood is important. That is why its such a tragedy that obama chose not to do it. Hes occasionally delivered the message. But usually to an audience of young black teenagers rather than the whole country and making it a really key message of his presidency. Is it possible to talk about this intelligently and sensitively in the sensiti
Wait and see how that plays out. I take some comfort that the senate has established a role for itself that whatever agreement is reached will have to be submitted to the congress for approval as a result of the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee committee, bob corker.

As long as we dont have an adequate substi
Besides, they do have substantially different responsibilities. We need a small numbers with highly trained and experienced people. When you think about the heroes of our profession, Charles Bolin were people from that era after world war ii georgia, these were individuals whose careers were assiduously cultivated and studied russian and get critical assignments and were advisers to roosevelt and atkinson and george washington. We we didnt create these people by the hundreds. They were created by the dozens. I think that is still true. I i mean, i could name for you even now i had a i had a pretty good idea of who the best psychologists were in a state department and you the best russian experts were in the best latin america experts. You get to know who they are in the intelligence community, who the best analysts are because there analysis bubbles up to the pres. And the pres. s daily brief brief and they get to sometimes come in brief the president themselves. There is somewhat of a
Countries and democratic. Very often we came to the relationship with those countries for security reasons. Like germany, germany, like south korea, but we saw the wisdom of helping them develop democratic countries that respect human rights. I think where things get a little bit complicated, its in the tactics the daytoday tactics of our Foreign Policy where you we will sometimes find some pretty serious disagreements that only the state department but around this town and maybe our country which is for example what you do about Human Rights Violations you have extremely significant interests purchase, the largest oilproducing country in the world for the country of china which is about to become possibly the largest economy in the world. You have to find a balance as to how you make clear that you support human rights in those countries but at the same time we are sometimes limited by the real possibilities as defined by two things that doesnt necessarily mean that a democratic a dem
