Obama is a better choice than Hillary, but I still don't see him as being qualified to be a leader. He's great at being popular, this isn't a vote for the President of the Highschool, this is where decisions actually matter and you'll have to make decisions that people don't like if you are actually doing your job. He doesn't project himself as a person who has any idea of how to do that. |
I understand what you are saying....but don't over-estimate the office of the President of the United States of America.
There are so many advisors and committees and intel groups that actually perform most of the leadership duties that the President serves mostly as a mouthpiece for the machine. Consider the President nothing more than a sound-byte generator for national media.
And that's why Obama is the perfect candidate for the job. He is well-spoken and takes his time before he speaks. The US could use someone with a little tact/ charisma for a change.
