What a pleasure to have an American President be able to pronounce Lord Rama’s name correctly (so it does not sound like a sports team!).

President Obama’s intellect and sensitivity is such a welcome relief and contrast to some other Western leaders, whom I won’t name. Watch the video on You Tube.
