President Obama, during his campaign, made it clear that he recognized the Armenian Genocide. During that same campaign, he made strong statements on the Sudan and the genocide going on there. Sadly, he hasn’t done much with the Sudan. I am watching what happens with Turkey. Will he actually do something and make an official declaration about what happened? I hope so. Even if it has taken this long, recognition of the Armenian Genocide would be a big step forward for the United States. However, I fear now it might not seem to be politically correct, even as it seems doing something to help fix what is going on in the Sudan appears to be for Obama unimportant now that he is in office. If Obama backs down here, it will be another black mark on his record, and people will not forget. Just as we won’t forget Sudan.
