Dear Mr. President,
Please do not veto the request for Palestinian statehood that is expected to be made at the United Nations on Friday.
This can be the defining moment of your presidency and the point at which North Africa and most of the Middle East realizes that the United States is a true friend and supporter of those struggling against tyranny.
It is also the moment you can point to where you earned your Nobel Peace Prize.
Sincerely,
Richard Watson and Deborah Dodd
Richard Watson 
Well done. Thank you for your direct, plain-speaking letter. Clear prose seems to be a rarity in the world of politics these days, but I’ve always respected Obama for his typical plain speech. I heard Bachmann saying today that Israel had already given up enough of its land — so this appears to be yet another battleground issue — or, I suppose, should be.
hugs,

I agree with Moya, it’s time to bring Palestine to the table, Norma Watson
