In the article, Radical in the White House by Thomas L. Friedman written in the New York Times on January 1, 2009, the author writes about how the differents in the white house. The article could be read by American people and maybe people around the world who takes a interest in American politics. The writer is basically saying that changes need and hopefully will come since Barack Hussein Obama is the 44th president of the United States. He states that "We need to get back to work on our country and our planet in wholly new ways. The hour is late, the project couldn't be harder, the stakes couldn't be higher, the payoff couldn't be greater."
This statement is so true, it is time for a change in America it is time for us to stop being a divided nation and come together on one term. The arguement the author is making is that we need to support Obama and try to change this country. The writer talks about how George W. Bush put the economy is in trouble but he also state the Obama has to make some changes of his own and hopefully he doesn't fail like Bush. Putting the country back to the way it was will be a hard task for Obama and we as American should help. Also do not expect for Obama to do this in a matter of months or a year it may take his full term as president and maybe even more to improve this country.
