Obama will apologize for the US dropping the bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and imply that somehow the Republicans were responsible.

If the Germans had gotten the bomb first they would have shared it with the Japanese.

Maybe the Nips will surprise us by offering a peace prize for all the lives saved by the timely end to the war.

The Germans might have invaded the East Coast and the Japanese would have invaded the West Coast. Would they in turn battle it out for control of the entire country or leave it divided? Grist for a novel?

One wonders if Obama will bow before the emporer of Japan?

Ironically, Truman came out of the St. Louis mob (Pendergast & Co.) and grew into his job.

Now Zero?

Nawwwwww... he's a Chicago product through and through.
