My Comment: Vice President Biden may have been critical ... or he may have not. Who knows. What we do know is that President Obama is the President ... and it is he who must forward American foreign policy.

On a side note .... what a contrast when comparing President Obama's response to the Iranian crisis this week, and how President Reagan responded to the crisis in Poland when that Communist Government declared Marshal Law in December 1981. President Reagan only consulted one man (Pope John Paul II), and took his advice that .... what the people in Poland want is what the people in America take for granted. Freedom. Democracy. Tolerance. Contempt towards dictatorship.

Mr. President .... I am sure that this is what the people in Iran also want, and they are looking at you to articulate this vision. Do not let them down.
