Obama changing Islam's opinion of U.S. - Ron Walters, Chicago Defender

Obama changing Islam's opinion of U.S. - Ron Walters, Chicago Defender: "Barack Obama went to Cairo to answer this question by saying in effect that the U.S. must hold out its hand in peace, and if the fist of Muslims is unclenched, there is a chance. But he also had to admit, like Bill Clinton did on his trip to Africa as President, that the U.S. had not always been on the right side of history. Then, as now, right wing radicals have called the President an apologist. In fact, here we have a president who has captured the attention of the entire Islamic world, whose speech has been translated into 12 languages and who is roundly accepted on the Muslim street as a positive force. But we find the reluctance to accept this triumph of public diplomacy in his own country."
