[Dialogue] The Nobel Peace Prize

[R Williams]

An insightful comment made around the edges at the Oklahoma City University meeting this week--one reason, perhaps the primary one, that Obama's approval ratings in this country have fallen since the inauguration is, many in the US are still looking for the strong, take charge leader.  Obama's leadership approach is to build consensus.  This grates on the right and those on the far left of his own party.  The Nobel confirms that the world approves of this new approach from an American president.

Thanks Mary

That's a very thoughtful and welcome word. After 
the last 8 years, it's a real relief to have 
someone in office who represents the best of what 
the nation stands for. Of course he still needs 
lots of support to bring it off.

I hope you received and will pass along the note 
I sent to Cyprian about the December event in 
Washington. Will you be coming? It sounds like a fine event.

We're in Malaysia now, but will be headed back to 
Denver in November.  How're you and the family doing? Let us hear from you.

John
