I see Obama as a man who envisioned himself a savior and a harbinger of winds of great change. He ran on a platform of 'Hope' and 'Change' and no matter the depth nor the detail of his 2008 political plans, the nation in general was carried away on a swift current of fervor over the chance for an African American to become commander in chief. Seems like everything else took a back seat. It's historically significant for the nation that a member of a race of enslaved people spanned their caste from no rights to highest office in the land over the course of about fourteen decades.
Who is Obama personally, Intimately? I really only know what the media has fed to me, and I do not like the taste. Shit happens, but I was genuinely surprised to learn of the assassination of our ambassador to Libya. The political aftermath does not matter to me so much as the how and why prior to the event. I am still waiting for a palpable response to this act of war. Seems like it's always some small nationless group of badguys against whom we cannot formally declare war. Personally, I want answers but more so, I want action. I do not believe Obama is the man to satisfy either.
