Go Big, Mr. Obama

Go Big, Mr. Obama by Thomas L. Friedman:
I voted for Barack Obama, and I don’t want my money back.

He’s never gotten the credit he deserves for bringing the economy he inherited back from the brink of a depression.

He’s fought the war on terrorism in a smart and effective way.

He’s making health care possible for millions of Americans with pre-existing conditions, and he saved the auto industry.

This is big stuff.

But, as important as all of these achievements are, they pale in comparison to the defining challenge of Obama’s presidency: Can he put the country on a sustainable economic recovery path at a time when, if we fail, it could be the end of the American dream?
Well said!
