Why don't we all write to Obama at president@messages.whitehouse.gov :
Mr Obama, there was report in the Indian press under the caption 'Indian can be model for world for food security: Obama'. I am surprised/shocked that the the Presdent of the United States of America seem to be ignorant of what food security means and the ground realities in India where food rots in the government godowns while people are dying of starvation.
Yours truly

"Indian can be model for world for food security: Obama
PTI, Nov 7, 2010, 03.55pm ISTMUMBAI: US President Barack Obama on Sunday evinced interest in furthering cooperation in the field of agriculture, saying India can be a model the world that strives for food security.
The collaboration between the two countries also contributed to India's first green revolution in the 60s, he said, adding: "I will be discussing with prime minister (Manmohan) Singh, how we can advance the cooperation in the 21st century, not only to benefit India, but to benefit the US and the world."
He shared his experiences about Indian agriculture with students at the St Xaviers College here, after visiting two expos and interacting with villagers.
"I was with two expos that underscores the partnership we can make together. The first is focused on agriculture and food security, that they will see innovation in technology and research that has transformed the Indian farming," he said.
Obama narrated how a farmer told him about receiving crop information on cellphone, while another showed him tools of appropriate size and weight help women to improve productivity and said many of these innovations were a result of public and private collaboration between US and India.
In March 2010, India and the US had signed an MoU to cooperate in agriculture and food security"
