Sunday Morning Mashup of FACE THE NATION:
HOWARD WOLFSON
April 27, 2008
Hillary Clinton's Chief Strategist instills doubts about Obama in voters minds.
"I think Democrats do have questions about whether or not he is going to be able to reach out and successfully win over the kind of blue collar voters that Democrats need to win in order to take the White House back in November. I think Senator Obama was well poised to win Ohio, he was well poised to win Pennsylvania. He outspent us in Pennsylvania 3 to 1. He set spending records in Pennsylvania and the fact that he was unable to put Senator Clinton away in these two key battleground states, I think, does raise questions on behalf of Democrats around the country about whether or not he would be our best nominee to face John McCain in the fall."

Sunday Morning Mashup of FACE THE NATION:
DAVID AXELROD
April 27, 2008
Barack Obama's chief strategist David Axelrod details the work needed to be done in the future.
"We do have to come together, not just as a party, but as a country. We have to get past our divisions. We have to push back on the special interests in Washington. We have to level with the American people about what needs to be done and move forward. And that's what Senator Obama is offering. I don't by the way, believe that Senator Clinton, I think she's competing very hard, I don't think she's doing it because she wants to defeat Senator Obama in the fall, I think she's doing it because she wants to be the nominee."

Sunday Morning Mashup of ABC THIS WEEK:
Artur Davis
April 27, 2008
Alabama Representative and Barack Obama Supporter, Artur Davis, asks everyone to stop, take a look back and be patient.
"We ought to have a robust debate and a vigorous debate, between these candidates. We got spoiled in '04 and 2000 because the cycles ended so quickly. If you go back from '68 to '92, every race lasted until June. This is not a big deal."

NASA Administrator Charles Bolden played host to 45 Brazilian Youth Ambassadors on Friday, Jan. 27, in the NASA Headquarters auditorium, where he delivered an educational outreach presentation. The Brazilians are participating in a three-week U.S. Department of State youth exchange program for outstanding Brazilian public school students. The Department of State requested this special presentation for the Brazilian students as a follow on to the Administrator?s successful outreach activities during his trip to Brazil in October 2011. His presentation to students at the National Institute of Space Research facilities in São José dos Campos was simulcast by the U.S. Embassy and viewed by nearly 3,000 people throughout the country. The Youth Ambassadors are young people in pursuit of academic and professional success who make a difference in their communities through their leadership and volunteer work. As ambassadors, the students also have an opportunity to fulfill a very important mission - to introduce a little bit of Brazil to the United States. Since 2002, the program has benefited some 250 young Brazilians. The Youth Ambassadors Program has now expanded to more than 20 countries in the Western Hemisphere. During the students first week in the United States, Youth Ambassadors visited Washington, D.C. and took part in meetings with government officials, visiting schools and social projects. The young Brazilians strengthened their leadership skills through workshops and lectures during these visits. They then traveled to host states, where they stayed with volunteer families. They attended classes at local schools, took part in volunteer activities, gave presentations about Brazil, and interacted with the community. The program offered a unique opportunity to learn about the U.S. culture and practice English. After their return home, the students will implement community service projects they developed during their exchange program. Image Credit: NASA/Paul Alers...
