Neera Tanden, a former aide to both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, had this to say about the relationship of the two presidents:
Clinton, being Clinton, had plenty of advice in mind and was desperate to impart it. But for the first two years of Obama’s term, the phone calls Clinton kept expecting rarely came. “People say the reason Obama wouldn’t call Clinton is because he doesn’t like him,” observes Tanden. “The truth is, Obama doesn’t call anyone, and he’s not close to almost anyone. It’s stunning that he’s in politics, because he really doesn’t like people. My analogy is that it’s like becoming Bill Gates without liking computers.”
It's a revealing statement from Tanden, who "served as senior advisor for health reform at the Department of Health and Human Services, advising Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and working on President Barack Obama’s health reform team in the White House to pass the bill," according to her bio at the Center for American Progress. She is currently president and CEO of the liberal organization

The more meetings, the chance he will have to speak and prove what an idiot he is.
Yep!

Obama IS Nicole Carpathia in the book “ Left Behind.” A cruel con-artist.
” Obama doesn’t call anyone, and he’s not close to almost anyone. It’s stunning that he’s in politics, because he really doesn’t like people.”
Especially Americans.
If politics was done from a bath house he’d already be king of the solar system.
I actually hope Obama tries to be Bill Clinton tonight, he is so cold and aloof that if he tries the “feel you pain” crap with the audience it will come off as phony as a three dollar bill.
More confirmation of what the White House Insider (WHI) has been saying.

Malignant narcissist’s rarely do.
“Obama doesn’t like people” .. .feeling is mutual.
This is the Bartleby the Scrivener presidency: He’d rather not take a stand, cast a vote, take the blame, deal with congress, anything at all other than act a role and play golf.
He liked the people in the choom gang.
