A giant in life, a legend forever - Madiba

Once labelled Terrorist by the West, Mandela triumphed to be awarded the Nobel Peace Price, and at his internment, the accolade of an adoring world. He overcame adversity in life, and towered over his detractors in death. Madiba's example is proof that the oppressed people of the world, including those in Palestine, will one day have their day of glory, just as the Biblical Israelites.

Obama : The Country We Believe In

A speech by The President of the United States of America, Barack Obama, on April 13, 2011 at Goerge Washington University... Good afternoon.  It’s great to be back at GW.  I want you to know that one of the reasons I kept the government open was so I could be here today with all of you.  I wanted to make sure you had one more excuse to skip class.  You’re welcome.
