As for his stuttering speech patterns it is like he is searching for the right words knowing how they will be dissected by the right or is he channeling his inner Martin Luther King.?
No - it's called being thoughtful as well as discerning since Presidents can move both markets and world events, by ill chosen words and thoughts.

Big mouth Donny will figure this out sooner or later, just hope by the time he does it won't be to late for all of us.

Like when he chooses to bad mouth our country's citizens, history, and heritage when speaking abroad in foreign countries? Yep, real thoughtful of him.

All I got was "don't you hate how Obama thinks before he talks..."

It's even more obvious to me how carefully he tries to speak "uhhh.... uhmm... (let me search for the safest word that makes me look really good here)."

I can't believe more people aren't immensely disappointed at this failure of a president who promised REAL change. Was he talking about his underwear or what?
Another anti-Obama thread. Yawn.

What you see as superficiality is in itself superficially looking at something. Superficiality is when you don't look very deep and get us into a war in Iraq...like the Republicans did...and we have been suffering from that ever since. What you see as superficiality is NOT making knee-jerk, simplistic decisions.

Ok, we get it, you don't like Obama. No sweat, he is retiring, so start concentrating on the kind of job your new boy does. I think we will have a LOT to talk about in the coming months/years.

To see what ol' Obama is really up to you have to follow the news pretty closely. Most people don't do that, understandably so. So most people just see a five second clip of him sounding smart and reasonable in a speech and they think that that's all there is to him.

It's not about his skin color or his name B Obama

I liked Obama when he was new, fresh, and full of promise back in 2008. It was an added bonus that he was black simply because I thought to myself that him being the first black president might help a lot of the racial issues that people so much like to dwell in.

As time passed I discovered Obama was was an empty suit with empty promises and outright lies. I began to dislike him not because he is black but rather because of all his failures, lies, and arrogance. The sad part of it all was racial divide I had hoped he could help heal was made much worse by him with all the salt he continued to pour into it.

Today a I reflect on his presidency I think him being black combined with his failures as a president have actually hurt the black community more than helped it. His record of lies, loss, and ineffectiveness will be tied to him being black and help reinforce that negative black stereo type.

Having said that I'm sure he's a decent guy to have a beer with or maybe even dinner but he is far from the the top of my list of people I'd like the honor of one day meeting.
