One really must read Obama's March 18th entire speech of 38 minutes on UTube to appreciate what Obama is saying and not interpret his speech through partial segments and interpretations in the media which can be slanted. I agree with Geoff Berg, M.D. from Warren, RI, who wrote in the Op Ed page of The Providence Journal in Rhode Island on April 1, 2008 ( after you have read the entire speech)"will you be in a position to reassert your right to decide what you think of this most important speech and this most important issue."
Berg also mentions that this speech was "the most important speech this nation has heard since Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in the summer of 1963."
