week 3

This week i read an article from "time magazine" on whether or not the pope will meet with the new russian patriarch. patriarch cyril was just elected on tuesday and people are wondering if he will meet with the pope and try to bring closer the catholic and orthodox churches. i don't think it would be a bad idea for them to meet and for the two churches to become closer.

I read an article from The Chicago Tribune about Joe Biden having a choice of wether to be vice president or secretary of state. He was on Oprah today and his wife was the one to tell about it. She said something about how if he was secretary of state he would be away from home a lot so they decided it would be better for their family if he took the offer to be vice president. If I was old enough to vote, I would have voted for an Obama Biden ticket, however i wonder if Joe Biden's wife really felt that being vice president would be better for her family or it just had better perks. Either way as of tomorrow Barack Obama will be the 44th President of the United States and Joe Biden will be Vice President. yay:)
