On the other hand, let’s look at George W. Bush’s record on Jerusalem.

In his 2000 campaign, he promised that as soon as he took office he would move the US embassy to Jerusalem.

Eight years later, it just sorta never happened.

Ain’t politics wonderful?

Correct. And this makes Obama’s speech better how? This makes Obama’s speech mean more, how? This means Obama speech will bring the middle east closer to peace how?

I don’t see the connection, except presidents who cannot effect any changes in the middle east.
