The American Way: Ahmadinejad Speaks

I congratulate Columbia University for having the courage to let Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad speak. What better way for our country to show the strengths of our cherished ideals by allowing a leader of one of our least favored countries speak?

I am personally tired of our nations attitude towards both Iran and Cuba. While I don't think we should treat these nations as friends exactly, I do believe its time to accept that their governments aren't going anywhere, and that they deserve a more official role in our diplomatic efforts. Its time we bury the conflicts of the past, and look towards tomorrow.
