Feeling Swiss Andrew Marshall's article "Identity Crisis" was well written but shouldn't have ended on such an optimistic note [Nov. 9]. True, the writer's son and my sons (with Swiss and African backgrounds) will always remain half-and-half. But as I always tell my boys, excellence has no color. Only if they excel in their chosen fields, like Federer and Hingis, will they be seen as authentic Swiss. And that's when Switzerland would probably celebrate. Taiwo Danjuma, EGERKINGEN, SWITZERLAND

...McKay's performance, which marries physical resemblance to internal channeling - he's practiced in this, having written and performed a one-man show called Rosebud: The Lives of Orson Welles - is exceptional. But there's one insurmountable problem: his age. He's 36, and passing for Welles at 22 is more than a stretch, especially when you're up against the world's biggest teenybopper. When Orson and Richard are briefly positioned as romantic rivals for Sonja, it's ludicrous, no matter how much charisma Efron exudes - since our perception...
...Worse still, this isn't the first time Sarkozy has been accused of trying to claim a leftist hero as a representative of his own values. Two years ago, for example, he started an annual ritual that involves schoolchildren reading a patriotic letter written by French communist resistance fighter Guy Môquet before he was executed by the Nazis in 1941. During his 2007 presidential campaign, he also repeatedly quoted the seminal French socialist leader (and Panthéon resident) Jean Jaurès in an attempt to infer that the legendary leftist would have backed the positions...
