I have to agree with DP.. Obama is not the peace candidate..

if you define a peace president as one who will take us out of all wars…

but the shades of grey are what matter in our world

and a candidate who tends towards peaceful negotiation as a first resort trumps one who thinks talking is best accomplished after you have trounced your opponent with war.

We are going to have a difficult time extracting ourselves from the mire this administration has not only blundered into but intentionally fostered.

I will rest easier knowing we are doing so with a President who prefers negotiation to bloodshed.
