Radical in the White House

The article "Radical In The White House" was written by Thomas Friedman and was published by New York Times. The article was written to inform that America is in now very tough times, and is in great need of a president make large changes. The author is also very enthusiastic about Obama serving and has very high hopes for him. He also talks about how in times of crisis America has great potential in pulling out in very positive ways, but he also warns that we as a country should stop putting off hard decisions and place everything on the table.

I think that this article was written directly towards the American people. Thomas definitely was writing in hope that Obama will indeed turn this country around. I think that his main point is that yes, Obama has great potential, but can he pull us as a country through these hard times. He also says that Obama should take these steps in a logical way so that we can get through these problems. I also agree I think that Obama does have great pontential and I very much hope that he will be the one to make this country and better place.
