Actually, he made a couple of typical, cryptic comments and certain ones (as is their wont) "interpreted" them. If you care to find and post those "few good things" we can talk about that.
In other words, typical Bob Dylan pseudo-intellectual pap.
BF: You liked Barack Obama early on. Why was that?
BD: Id read his book and it intrigued me.
BF: Audacity of Hope?
BD: No it was called Dreams of My Father.
BF: What struck you about him?
BD: Well, a number of things. Hes got an interesting background. Hes like a fictional character, but hes real. First off, his mother was a Kansas girl. Never lived in Kansas though, but with deep roots. You know, like Kansas bloody Kansas. John Brown the insurrectionist. Jesse James and Quantrill. Bushwhackers, Guerillas. Wizard of Oz Kansas. I think Barack has Jefferson Davis back there in his ancestry someplace. And then his father. An African intellectual. Bantu, Masai, Griot type heritage - cattle raiders, lion killers. I mean its just so incongruous that these two people would meet and fall in love. You kind of get past that though. And then youre into his story. Like an odyssey except in reverse.
BF: In what way?
BD: First of all, Barack is born in Hawaii. Most of us think of Hawaii as paradise so I guess you could say that he was born in paradise.
