He will also call on leaders in Congress, American businesses and the private sector to work with him in helping America achieve the next "Sputnik" moment by investing in education, innovation, and infrastructure.
Amazing isn't "Sputnik" USSR?

What's Up With 'Sputnik?' Obama Makes '50s Space Race a Rallying Cry

Quote
The phone. The electric light bulb. The Model T. Heck, Google.

The list of American innovations that have changed life on Earth is practically endless, but President Obama is trying to inspire America's next technological wave by referring back to a 50-year-old achievement by a defunct nation -- Sputnik.

At times I wonder if TOTUS just does not know any better. It is a wonderful thing Mao with this bunch.  So I am sure Sputnik is a huge achievement to them.

Well......bad analogy or not, I was in HS when Sputnik was launched.......it inspired me to enter engineering school as an undergrad, and go on to do graduate work (a lot of it).  I wanted to be a part of making the country the technological leader in the world, along with a lot of other kids my age.

That single event created a lot of momentum in science and technology, which we seem to have lost interest in as a nation.......last time I looked, we were "importing" more engineers than we are training.

I'll throw rocks at Obama for a lot of things that he comes up with, but I can't really do it for this......

With him if it was this alone I would have no problem.. it is the sum of all he is about that bothers me. Why didn't he pick something American?
