You're kidding, right? He wasn't even able to explain health care to persuade his own people.
But perhaps you mean that he's known for being distracted by detail. That's certainly true. There has never been a president so easily distracted, plunging into petty squabbles.
ON the other hand, not much point in discussing anything with someone who imagines CNN to be commies. How old are you? Are you left over from the 1940s mindset?

Thank you, Observer. This is something important that we should all keep reminding ourselves. In general, in America, The best news won't get the highest ratings, the best movie won't have the highest grosses, the best restaurant won't have the most patrons.
Americans just don't care about better quality, higher level options. There was an international study done recently that showed that even in shopping, Americans go for what's cheap, not what's good.
