What a weird article.

G. Will tells never explains how Obama is unraveling.

Carter’s presidency crumbled when people decided they still liked his character but had no confidence in his competence. Obamacare’s misadventures, and Obama’s response to them, have caused people to doubt both his character and his competence.

That's not good enough for you? Personally, I think it is, though yet to be proved if the media is able to gussy up some Iranian nuclear deal flub into Nobel Peace Prize fodder.

“He knows exactly how smart he is. . . . I think that he has never really been challenged intellectually. . . . He’s been bored to death his whole life. He’s just too talented to do what ordinary people do. He would never be satisfied with what ordinary people do.” I think he does tell us why he is unraveling, through that quote from Jarrett when it is coupled with a bit of extrapolation, he has no humility. He is too smart to know that no matter how smart you are, or think you are, there is always someone brighter than you. He is extraordinary just not in a positive way, he is the antithesis of what being an American is in every aspect.

I edited a paper for a tenth grader this past week that, honestly speaking, had more coherence than this piece.
