If we want to know about “O”, his background, education, religion, associations, etc. we only have to look at HIM.
“The test of every religious, political, or educational system is the man that it forms.” Henri Frederic Amiel
A cool political background, religion, education, associations produces a ‘cool’ man.
I am sorry to say that there is nothing in ‘cool’ to recommend a man/or woman to lead the most powerful national entity in the known universe.
If you want things done properly and with mature reasoning, ‘Cool’ is not an adequate qualifier for any task or responsibility PERIOD!!
If American voters are handed a nominee who tries, ever so self-consciously to appear ‘cool’...he/she is the last person who should be considered for responsibility, authority and leadership!
‘Cool’ is immature and it’s a front for people who need to disguise their lack of character and ability. It works for film stars, etc. It is out of place and absolutely a red flag for anyone in leadership!
So true. However, this is an indictment of the American culture as well. There is too big of a segment of the voting public that is immature and completely ignorant. I think of it as the "American Idolization" of the culture. Sure, the DNC/media complex weaves its web of deceit and lies but too many citizens get so easily fooled. The ancient Romans used the Colosseum. The NannyStateSocialists of this age use TV and movies to keep the general public immature and stupid.
Government schools deserve much blame for this too.
