As devotees of Barack Obama know all too well, qualities that made him so attractive as a candidate — an affinity for subtle arguments, a tendency to carefully weigh his options — have at times proved less useful in his role as president. That carefulness has been read as indecisiveness. The subtle arguments have sounded, to some ears, like hedging. In response, the president has simplified his rhetoric. The nuances of the 2009 Cairo speech about relations between the U.S. and the Muslim world have given way to chest thumping over killing Osama bin Laden. The sophistication of the speech on race he delivered during the 2008 campaign has morphed into sentimental headline grabbers: "If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon."

Einstein declined the offer to be the first President of Israel. He was too “cerebral” to be president and he knew it.
The problem with the Presidency is that anyone actually smart enough to do the job, doesn’t want it.
You think Jimmy Carter was bad as an ex-President, he’s going to be Jimmy Carter times a thousand.
And the fact that somebody even wants the job makes me question their sanity to begin with....it's become a "Catch-22".
If Romney wins in November I expect Obama to go Grover Cleveland on us.
As usual, when libs try to understand the conservative mind they get it wrong.
I don’t think Obama is indecisive. I think he is wrong. Pigheadedly so.
For a man who has claimed to be a Marxist, he has to be very enamoured of that dead political philosophy “communism” . When only the lowest and slowest could believe in the validity of communism, being to intelligent does not enter the conversation. The other end of the spectrum perhaps.
But if you know you don’t want the job, then you’re smart enough to do the job, so then you want the job, because you can probably do it. As Joe Biden explained.

Obama: as sophisticated as a can of worms
You are scaring me
"What they'll say is, 'Well it costs too much money,' but you know what? It would cost, about.
It it would cost about the same as what we would spend. It. Over the course of 10 years it would cost what it would costs us.
All right. Okay. We're going to do it. It would cost us about the same as it would cost for about... hold on one second. I can't hear myself. But I'm glad you're fired up, though. I'm glad. "~Barack Obama
