IMHO it is not so much jealousy or lack of intelligence as a completely different world view based upon collectivism (e.g. socialism, fascism, communism) not individualism.

Obama and his ilk believe that human rights are not innate but granted to groups by government and that government is more important and powerful than the individuals governed. Individual merit and achievement are totally alien to him. In fact collectivists believe it is impossible for the average person to achieve anything without the assistance, guidance, and even, if needed, coercion of the government.

Ironically Obama, like other collectivists, arrogantly believes himself to be uniquely qualified to social engineer and set policy for big government. IMHO it reminds me of the mindset of royalty vis a vis serfs in the middle ages.
