I think he nails it in his conclusion:

"There can be no doubt, I think, that he wants to preside over an America that is morally superior and, hence, better, than the country that elected him two years ago. The problem, though, is that the America of Obama's imaginings is radically unlike the America to which most of its citizens have an acquired affection and even more unlike the America within which their ancestors made their home."

Obama is just like most other liberals, really. He believes that turning America into a European style soft-socialist nanny state would be for the ultimate good of America and the world.

You sound like idiot Bill O'Reilly. Obama is a hardcore "Black Liberation" revolutionary communist.

Good friggin grief! Obama isn't about "European style soft-socialism". He's an out and out Marxist.

“Soft” socialism?

I don't think so. Look at the flamingly hard core Marxists which he has sought out and surrounded himself. Do you seriously believe these men and women would be satisfied with “soft” socialism?
