But you isolated the presidential election. I was talking about the whole process for Obama. Including being named the Democratic nominee. You say there were more prominent things at work but only list the republican party's image... How did he win the nomination? None of those people were republicans. What made him stand out from the rest was his charism

I thought it seemed pretty clear from the topic and your previous quotes that we were talking about the general election. My general point was that these explanations that tend to contribute election results to one or two factor oversimplify an incredibly complex process.

Oh. I was talking about Obama running in general. I even stated that I don't know what gave him the idea he could win before he decided to run given his inexperience and generally not being qualified for such a position.

No problem. I find these misunderstandings happen quite often. : )
I have no idea what made him think he could win. He did come out of nowhere. From what I remember, most people assumed Hilary had it wrapped up early on (as in a year or two away from the election), and then Obama started racking up delegates.
