The big question on all the news shows to undecideds is "what exactly
has Obama done?". There are still no answers except that he is
motivational, Black, and hopeful... Not one accomplishment could even
be noted by his strongest supporters...


OK, let's try again...

===========

Pick me.....pick me........

1. He promised to raise our taxes.
2. He promised to increase the size of government.
3. He promised to increase entitlement programs.
4. He looks good in a suit.
5. He has a good tailor.
6. He is eloquent.
7. He is black.
8. He is charismatic.
9. He is young.
10.He has 2 years as a Senator.

Impressive.........eh?

Is that all it takes to become our next POTUS?


The one thing in which I think Obama will be of great benefit is the
rebuilding of the USA's reputation and image globally. IMO, that is a more
important short term goal than addressing domestic issues right now.
The USA is heavily dependent on the global economy and relationships with
other countries. If the trust and image of the USA is not restored, none of
the domestic issues matter because we can't afford to fix them anyway.

Towards that end, he's articulate, polished and smart. I think he will
command immediate respect in the rest of the world because he's at least
willing to listen. Unfortunately, McCain would not.
