[Buddha-l] Ban-ki Moon in Burma seeking release of AungSanSuuKyi

[Timothy Smith]

I think some understanding of Obama can be gleaned from Goodwin's book  
on Lincoln.  He literally is following
Uncle Abe's playbook.  Its a great read, by the way, and does a bit to  
assuage the difficulty some are having
with his 'centrism'.
