This piece hits the right spot for a very wide demographic. He evokes trust through previous collaboration during WW2, mentions cold war, pope and increasing trust between nations and then goes on to evoke empathy from the people using "we are one" kind of deal, and even manages to sneak in a reference to League of Nations tangentially hinting/threatening irrelevance of UN. I am fairly impressed. I wish I could write such an elegant Cover letter. Opening paragraph sets the tone, and finishing one solidifies it. A good piece, nevertheless, wherever individual opinions lie.
