It's always interesting to get outside the bubble of American politics and see how others view things. Lech Walesa won a Nobel prize for his leadership of the Polish union Solidarity in freeing Poland from the orbit of Soviet serf states. In 2011 President Obama was touring Europe and asked for a one-on-one with Walesa. He was denied. Last week, Mitt Romney not only met with Walesa but unexpectedly received his endorsement in the Presidential race. Walesa is a man of rare courage and he knows leadership when he sees it. He also understands how important it is for America to be out in front leading the free world, not leading from behind. I hope a majority of Americans see as clearly two months hence.
