Just back this week from a few days in Washington. My first time since 1994 when we took the kids for a USA holiday. I took the opportunity to meet with with Professor Frank Vella my old mate from Sydney University who now teaches at Georgetown University. A blast from the past as we had last spoken in 1981 and I 'googled' and found his email address online in about 5 minutes (really incredible search) at 6:30am one sunday morning.
The timing of this visit could not be more perfect as Barrack Obama had been named the Democrats presumptive candidate. Our briefings with numerous congressmen, senators, lobbyists and Ex CNN & current Washington Post journalists revealed their thoughts on Obama, Hillary and McCain. The speculation about the platforms and VP debate were particularly interesting.....it seems the USA is at a turning point does it choose the promise of radical change and reform or experience????
