Sen. Barack Obama is expected to visit several world leaders over the next few weeks.

Obama’s trip, which includes visits to Iraq, Jordan, Israel, Germany, France and the United Kingdom, is intended to bolster his foreign policy credentials before U.S. voters.

“This is the campaign trail via satellite — pictures for the rhetoric back home,” CNN’s Candy Crowley said, adding that the trip was intended to demonstrate that Obama was up to the job of taking a lead role on the international stage.

“The question is, is he tough enough to stand up for America but graceful enough to improve [its] image?” Crowley said. Video Watch what Obama needs from this trip »

It is a very good Post and I commend you for posting it. Nevertheless it is a copy and should not be on her as such! Please check out the rules!

It may help a bit! Further Here's one take on copyright.

There are two different issues: what's legal and what's ethical. The former is spelled out in law. The latter is a personal choice.

Dartmouth has a good, brief resource on copyright. This resource also covers Fair Use, which is really what a highlight is about. From that section:

"The purpose and the character of the use, including whether it is for commercial or non-profit educational purposes

  • The nature or type of the copyrighted material (i.e., periodical, film, book, etc.)
  • The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the whole
  • The effect of the use on the potential market for or value of the copy-righted material

There are many good resources that cover the Berne convention, copyright law, DCA, etc. on the 'net.
