I was in DC over the weekend, attending a Brazil conference amongst other things, and I've been following Obama's visit as much as I can, but have a lot of catching up to do this week. If anyone has any suggested reading, articles, or videos, please feel free to post them in the comments or shoot me an email. My overall reaction is one of mixed feelings, in that some pretty key mishaps strained the supposed good will that the trip was supposed to foster. Anyway, I'll try to get a post up tomorrow or Tuesday, and I'll also include a post about the conference some time this week.

I keep feeling like we elected a Tourist-in-Chief here in the US.
PS- I like your blog. I was referred here by Andrew Comings' missions blog.
