THAT SEEMS ABOUT ALL WE'VE HAD FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW
Since I started noticing these things: Carter seemed a genuine person. Reagan seemed genuine to me as well. A real person of emotional stature. Bush Sr. seemed genuine although not anywhere near as commanding a figure as Reagan. Clinton always came off as dense shiny plastic to me, I never trusted a thing he said. Finally, Bush Jr comes off as, well......a simple twit.
Thats how Ive seen these guys since about 1976.
Obama just plain worries me, along the same lines as Clinton did. A great talker...great at manipulation. I think Obama "could" pull it off and be a decent President, but I really seriously doubt it. Just too young in life to manage himself realistically under such incredibly demanding times.
