Destiny's child.
"...President Obama is the right leader for this moment. Republican laissez faire started an economic pendulum swing from John Maynard Keynes to Milton Friedman that has gone too far, too fast. The present crisis requires a president of global vision, character and respect. Obama.
He proved, not just to me but to the entire world, that America could live out the true meaning of its creed: "that all men [and women and children] are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights ... . " The world has taken notice, in Kenya and Indonesia; Berlin, Rio and Oslo; in Jerusalem and Jeddah.
Soon, our president, our hope for change, must gather the nations of the world -- in a forum reminiscent of World War II's Bretton Woods conference, led by Franklin D. Roosevelt -- and seek agreement on an economic mechanism that will restore confidence and stability to the global marketplace. Global economic equilibrium is the change that we require.
There is an old Quaker proverb: "The wheel goes round, because the center is at rest." May God continue to give Barack Obama the "peace ... which passes all understanding," that he might lead us to a season of calm and prosperity for all the world's children.
"Yes, we can.""
