As
President Obama completes his official mandate, I want to register my
admiration for him as a politician. It is true there are decisions he took I
would not support. Or that would make me uncomfortable. But he was by and large
an inspiring leader and as humane as one can be when at the head of the most
powerful country on earth.
History
cannot be confused with the horizon in front of us. The short term commentary about
Obama might be unfair and even harsh. We cannot be discouraged by the cruelty
of immediacy and the blindness of partisanship.
We
should be confident. And be convinced that history will be honest and kind to
Barack Obama.
