He’s deeply conflicted about being half white and half black. He seems to hate it. He’s a narcissist, so he’s in love with himself, but he hates his racial makeup. That’s the impression I get from his writings and general attitude.

I am sorry the Office of President of the United States is being used as some sort of therapy. But, whatever’s in it for him, for his sake as well as ours, Obama should strive to be less flip and more circumspect in pursuing his personal demons in public.

His tendency toward being flip, bitter and sarcastic is already painful for all of us.
