He's almost too diplomatic. He needs to grow a set of balls and do the things he said he'd do. Simply. - LA Yes, he likes to sit back and delegate, leave the details to others, focusing on longer vision. He needs to be more LBJ, get his hands dirty, go talk to people, work things out, twist a few arms. I think he's learning, but slowly. Too slowly, probably.

quote: ORIGINAL: LadyAngelika quote: ORIGINAL: Thadius I hoped I was wrong about my judgements of the man, and honestly prayed once he became President that he would bring about the change he promised (even if it was just in the discourse). Unfortunately, the sides seem to be getting more and more polarized and the rhetoric is getting worse. I don't think he's a bad man and I think that he truly wanted the change.

Simply. - LA Unfortunately, that is the way he has been since he got into politics. Voting present on many controversial issues in the Illinois Senate. Even his election to the US Senate, was basicly a pass because of some shrewd moves. He got rid of his primary opponent with challenges to signatures, got rid of the front runner when a sealed divorce record was leaked that contained a nice sex scandal, and faced a late replacement in the form of Alan Keyes... The folks he has surrounded himself with will see that the system remains the same, as that is how they got their power. Maybe, he will have some sort of revelation after Nov, the way Clinton changed after the midterms that made Newt the speaker.

Well I hope he's learning. But the pace needs to step up. Your nation is in serious trouble and that trouble impacts the rest of the world in a massive way. - LA

Agreed.
