Obama's personal confidence and the ability to create illusions in order to gain power. Whether that power is for good or ill remains to be seen.

    The ability to "Lyndon Baines Johnson" someone.

  • Exactly!

  • I am one who believes smoke and mirrors is an art form, and I think its impossible to become a world leader without learning this art.

    Frank

  • I agree with you. I just wish people wouldn't get so dazzled by the mirrors that they forget to think.

  • Great video! Very thought provoking.

    In the UK the ultimate bad-taste chintzy items are plates, cups and saucers commemorating the marriage of Princess Diana and Prince Charles that were bought the year of the wedding.

    Mind you... If by somehap Obama DID turn out to be America's messiah, one of those cotton blankets might just increase in value!

  • I think I'll stick with Martha Stewart - her blankets are cheaper :)

  • Let me rephrase my question. I'm not so sure you actually comprehended it.

    If Obama made it illegal to drive cars, wear clothes, and bear children, would that satisfy your hope, since such acts would certainly constitute "change"?

    If Obama made everybody serve in the army for 2 years, would that satisfy your hopes/desires since that would qualify as "change"?

    Do you now understand, what I'm asking you? Why hope for "change" when that could be anything? Why not hope for specific things?

  • Wow... I'm the first to comment in over a year...

  • Lol, lots of rationalization here. However, Obama is more than a mere politician. He's got a 'family friend' who was prepared kill tens of millions of Americans.  I would think that would be a little too much, even for the terminally hopeful.

  • Baz Obama rules!

  • Seems like it's everyday I get an email announcing some wonderful development... and oh, by the way, can you send $100?

  • I've supported Obama, as well. I'm excited about his Presidency. I just wish they'd quit asking for money... It's getting VERY tiresome.
