Great song, Rich. An old favorite.

Books I would like to send to President-elect Barack Obama:

The Ideal of Human Unity by Sri Aurobindo

The American Soul: Rediscovering the Wisdom of the Founders by Jacob Needleman

And most importantly, given my background:

The Duel: Pakistan on the Flight Path of American Power by Tariq Ali

Obama needs to own up to the questionable American relationship with Pakistan, and has to be tougher on Pakistan and push for peace in South Asia if he wants to fight against the problem of terrorism. He himself had published a public policy paper some time back suggesting the importance of this.
