the President to kinda 'push the button' and say 'go for it' ?

Youve got it! When he say 'go," they want to be ready. Very interesting article in this week's NYT Magazine. Too long to post. On the Attitude of the "Europeans" as opposed to their Nationalism. As you might expect the younger crowd is in to it to some extent. The older crowd is still fiercely Nationalistic.

I consider the EC a great Political Idea that has gone bad on the structure. When you add up the sliding productivity with the increasing welfare, I just don't see how a good result can happen. It will be interesting to watch how it plays out. Here is the NYT URL.
