In the end, the only politician who I actually have faith in almost always wanting to get stuff done in the US today, rather than posing or making some obscure point, it’s Obama.

I think it’s his flaw, in that it makes him easy to blackmail. I think it’s, however, a very admirable quality, and if others had that quality— regardless of their political orientation— we’d be in much better shape.

He believes in government and tries to make it work.
