Some writers believe that Obama should be given credit for taking a chance that resulted in the saving of the American capitalist way of life, for which, of course, he got what amounts to a kick in the teeth. This is about the same as Churchill received for leading the Brits during the struggle against Hitler.
Well the policies presently in place still have to unfold be they ever so unfair.
There is something in human nature that wants to escape the horror of remembering what things could have been like without the odd leader that takes an uncomfortable stand for us, and the best way is to eliminate the real savior from ones mind. It may be that the person has taken an opposing view to our own and we don't like to be reminded how things would have turned out had we been leader.
There would be too much responsibility owed to one person if we were to thank those to whom we owe so much. As remembrance day nears, we might thank those that fought in the Battle of Britain to which we owe so much.

Will not time reveal the lasting importance of friends and mutual respect? Be kind to those who think well of you and those you know and try to add positive elements to your world. Promote peace in your heart and sunshine in the minds of those around you by your own good works. Elevate the level of discussion by thinking less of the issues and more of how you can reduce the tension of stress that arises with honest disagreement. Relax by breathing more deeply and consciously.
