I do agree with your observations but I do not think Obama has got Israel wrong yet and I believe he should not because Israel is a symbol for all the oppressed people in the world. I am Igbo, and we know what genocide is all about. Indeed we are among the few nations visited with that odium in the last cenury and for Obama to get Israel wrong will put the nail in his desire to lead America.
I however beg to disagree with you that he needs more schooling in the art of governance inthe Senate before gunning for the highest office in America.
