IMO, there is no shame in being an instructor. Maybe it’s “lowly” in the academic hierarchy, but it’s a respectable job. What makes it not respectable, is when it’s an Affirmative Action hire, and undeserved.
I feel sorry for anyone in any of his classes. If his teaching style was anything like his current speaking style, it must have been atrocious. Did he have teleprompters in class? Did someone write out speeches for him to deliver? The thought of him teaching boggles the mind.
“If his teaching style was anything like his current speaking style, it must have been atrocious.”
Maybe he was honing his current speaking style (serious and then “Cousin Pookie”, “piece of the pie” speeches).
Even with affirmative action hiring of minorities, they are usually expected to meet the same requirements for getting tenure as non-minorities are...but I don't know if law schools act the same way.
Maybe if Obama is defeated a major law school will offer him its presidency.

It was most assuredly an affirmative action hire. Probably a political favor.

LOL. The few times I have heard Obama speak without a teleprompter, he was no better than a high school kid(a none-too-bright high school kid)
