Of course you do. He's white & he's moron. He also possesses 2 key strengths BO will never have: He's smart & he's successful.

The real problem for him is that not much is going to be any better a year from now. Unemployment will be high 8's or low 9's, credit and housing will still be in the crapper, growth is going to be very very slow, gas will still be high, food will still be high, the stock market is going to be flat, we will still be in Iraq and Afghanistan, and on and on. And that is the best case scenario if we don't go into a second recession, Europe doesn't crash, etc. By November next, he will have lost most of the independent vote that he hasn't already lost and his own party will be running away from him openly.
Bo's vision is to create a nation where everyone rides in the cart, leaving the benevolent as the only one to pull the cart.
You're right. His ego would never allow it. He should have turned down the Nobel Peace price too, so it could be awarded to somebody more deserving. He couldn't even do that. That fiasco was embarrassing. In another time and another place, given his background and personality, there is no doubt in my mind he would have turned into a very harsh dictator by now. Only a fool wouldn't see this by now. Fortunately, the last threads of freedom and dignity this country has left has not allowed it to happen here. In spite of roughly 50% of the population begging for it.
The Cons are getting all the attention because they are in a primary race. What is so unusal about that?
