Looking for the Ideal Spot to Make a Speech
ATFP World Press Roundup Article from The New York Times by Helene Cooper - (Opinion) December 4, 2008 - 1:00am President-elect Barack Obama’s aides say he is considering making a major foreign policy speech from an Islamic capital during his first 100 days in office.
