Cheney's sneer replaced by Biden's smile

It's so symbolic on the surface, and truly genuine in what it represents.

As I write this, I am watching MSNBC's live coverage of Vice President Joe Biden's speech at a security conference in Munich, Germany.

It is refreshing to see a U.S. vice president greet the world with a warm smile instead of a sinister sneer.

And it is refreshing to hear a U.S. vice president talk about working together with our allies, listening to them, and "sharing ideals".

Gone is the cowboy-style foreign policy. Gone is an administration with a chip on its shoulder. The bullies have left the White House.

And, for the first time in a long time, I once again feel proud to be an American.
