- About Me
- Born, and raised in northwest Ohio, to two wonderful Muslim Americans from South Asia. For as long as I can remember my mother and father have been politically engaged. They have worked hard and consistently to realize a more free, more fair and more just society. And they always took us to vote. While my siblings and I were taught to cross the finish line, we were more importantly taught to make sure a whole lot of people crossed that line with us. I admire my parents' politics and their personal choices. I hope to play a similar role in the lives of my children.

Obama and the Muslim World: Building a New Way Forward

Reporting from Washington — President Obama abruptly changed tactics Wednesday in his bid to revive the economy, setting aside his bipartisan stance and pointedly blaming Republicans for demanding what he cast as discredited "piecemeal measures."

I MUST FIND THAT BLOG ! WHERE IS IT--CAN YOU FIND OUT? ( The reason I ask is that I have a very good friend who has been writing in that same vein--about the leadership since W. D. died.-or rather , the lack of leadership.) I sure would appreciate it if you can tell me that.
Many thanks.
