In Baird's experience, Obama was always courageous, demanding and even audacious. He wasn't sure how seriously Obama would take his teaching job, because the promising lawyer also wanted to go into politics. It was an experiment: a black professor who taught constitutional law, which included the history of the elimination of racial barriers, at a university where more than 90 percent of the students are white. Obama was a popular teacher, Baird recalls. "The students loved him," he says. "There were never any complaints."

This guy is delusional. How many other Leftists are?

I found this a href=”http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/30/us/politics/30law.html";>2008 article</a> about his teaching experience interesting. Supposedly, after some experience as a “senior lecturer” and after losing in the 2000 Congressional election to Black Panther Bobby Rush, he was offered a tenured position (including a job for Michelle) at the University of Chicago Law School — without having published a single article. He must have figured that if affirmative action could get him an undeserved, tenured position at one of the best law schools in the country, then he might as well up the ante, and go for the brass ring.
