America needs a Democrat in the White House. We need Obama's intelligence, his willingness to seek diplomatic solutions and his patience. Soothe your own bruised egos. Relax the clenched jaws. Pay your own bills. Above all, work hard to get Obama elected in November. John Gambardella, CUNDLETOWN, AUSTRALIA...
