re: #253 b_sharp

From my perspective as an outsider with an interest in US politics, he seems to be the most intelligent president you have had in a while. I think his greatest failing is his naive belief decisions can be made in a bipartisan manner if he extends his hand out to the Republicans. If anything he needs to be less intellectual and more predatory to deal with the anti-intellectual right wing.

Blah blah blah Obama extending his hand to the Republicans, blah blah blah.
