I thank Obama because ... It is obvious he is willing to lead make change in a remarkable fashion and he willing to take on very controversial issues that even his party has been unwilling to take on. It's obvious he is a tremondously gifter leader with great vision and stamina driven by doing the right thing. You have brought back respect that we lost in the Bush era and you have already made a great difference. Mr. President today on Meet the Press was an example of similar leadership with Sen. Bayh and Graham. If I were you I would reach out to Bob Schieffer while the kettle is hot and thank these leaders for trying to find common ground. The problem with polorized parties has Wash at gridlock and the more you shed support to leaders like these the better you can expose the pathetic political extremist rhetoric in Wash and get others to behave properly like these two great leaders. Once again you are my president that I am proud of you and I am convinced you are doing the right thing. Trust that the American public is really behind you unfortunately mass media is similarly polorized like the parties by $$$ but real leadership that talks truth and what's right is still more powerful.
