Was Obama’s Overseas Trip a Success?
Barack Obama and his traveling media troupe have bombarded the Middle East and Western Europe with an Americanized style of politics and press that would normally be conspicuously displayed by the sitting President. One very large and vexing problem exists though–Obama is not the President. He is not even the official Democrat nominee. Just the presumptive Democrat nominee until formalized at the Democrat National Convention. Then there is still that pesky general election he has to bother with, something he and the liberal media seem to have forgotten about. Obama is promoting himself, presidentially, as if the general election is just a formality. If not arrogance, what else could cause him to act with such pomp, and to have assembled, virtually, a fully functioning transition team, and be so flagrant about it? At this stage of the game, a transitional team is something that should be talked about within the confines of each camp, but discretion would be the better part of valor. It has become a repeated perfunctory exercise adding to the list of attributes that Obama cannot claim, with honesty, as componental to his character. The newest addition being valor.
