...very much liked Clinton's statement that "we should be trying to build alliances and acting with others whenever we can and acting alone only when we have to." Because the U.S. is a superpower, with almost no competition in sight, it may feel it is always right. But that doesn't mean the U.S. has to prove that everyone else is wrong. Only respect for others' views can bring the world nearer to peaceful solutions. Girish Mehta Baroda, India...

Richard was all about mastery. It was not enough to guide the boat by sight around the rocks and into the harbor; the goal was to be able to navigate entirely by the charts and compass. It was not young John who was "blindfolded" that day in the boat, but Richard; he sat covered by a tarp reading his maps and instruments by flashlight and calling...
...Nancy Reagan receive the flag from the coffin and break down crying, and then seeing her children console her, reminded me that she was mourning the loss not of a President, Governor or actor but of her husband of more than 50 years. I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that, despite any objections to Reagan's presidency, we can have sympathy for his family and friends as they cope with his death.
