This reinforces the doubts about his true principles.
My guess is that all his principles are negotiable, reversible, and expendable.
If the Obama campaign bus gets stuck in a snowdrift, just throw a few principles and a couple of staffers under the wheels to get the traction he thought he knew, and away he goes!
No, he just knows that most of us wouldn’t like his true principles - which are Muslim and Marxist - if we knew them, so he’s just trying to hide them. His goal is power so that he can exercise those “principles.”
