There are definitely things out there that would be very embarrassing, if not disqualifying to Obama.

The little story during the campaign that the Clinton’s talking about Obama’s paper in kindergarten where he stated he wanted to be president is one.

Why is it embarrassing for a kid to aspire to be president?

I've never understood how that was supposed to be a bad thing. I guess Clinton was trying to show that Obama was too ambitious. But most people are going to see ambition and trying to achieve your goals as a positive American trait, especially in a kid. That's why the story didn't go anywhere.

I don’t think the story was embarrassing to Obama at all.

But if the clintons found that, it made me wonder what else they found that they weren’t letting on to.

I think the real message of the story was the same as sending a hostage’s finger to the family- let them know what they got.
