Barack Obama and the Muslim World

Hosted by

President Obama today called for "a new beginning" for the US and Muslims around the world.  Was there a call for actions to back up his words? Did he reach young people on the Arab street? Will his words make a difference to Israelis and Palestinians? What about Muslims in other parts of the world? We sample reactions from a variety of sources. Also, Newt Gingrich has thought better about calling Sonia Sotomayor a "racist." We look at what she said eight years ago and what her audience thought then.
