Obamarama

President Barack Obama would not have won the elections if he were white. He is charming and rarely wants to lose in a debate. Although being charming is great trait for an American President, Obama just talks. To put it bluntly, he talks the talk but does not walk the walk.

During the Presidential elections in the US, the whole world was watching. America was so under pressure that if a black candidate did not win, the US would be considered racist. Even if this is not discussed in many fora and news agencies, this somehow affected the American vote.

Today, now that we've seen how Obama operate, George W. Bush now looks more like a hero rather than the inarticulate US President who called the Italian PM "Amigo". Bush, Jr. might not have been the greatest orator but if he knows a certain policy is right, he will implement it without much mumbo jumbo.

Obama said in an interview that it is better for him to be a good one-term President rather than a mediocre two-term President. The question is, how does a mediocre one-term President sound like? Obama should be prepared for more criticism that will attack him left and right, not only from the Republicans but from his very own party as well.

The healthcare issue, one of the hottest topics in the US today is a repeat of Hillary Clinton's healthcare fight only bloodier. This puts Obama in a rather precarious position not only in terms of popularity but his credibility as President of the United States.
