Non-violent Protest Signals Easier Pullout Obama says

Elections in Iraq on Sunday will bode well for a pullout of U.S. military in the near future says Obama.

"We are in a position to start putting more responsibility on the Iraqis and that's good news not only for the troops on the ground but for the families who are carrying an enormous burden," Obama said.

Obama's campaign promise was to remove troops from Iraq in 16 months.
