Thread: Is Obama naive or right on target?

Clinton and Edwards think that lower level officials should meet first with hostile nations to avoid being used for propaganda purposes. Obama wants to meet with them directly.

Obama creates this 'utopia' for this country and makes it look so simple to achieve. Yet he never goes into detail on how we can achieve it.

Is he just too naive, too inexperienced, and too general about his goals to matter? Can he really accomplish anything and how do you think we will accomplish it?

Is he just a good inspirational speaker?

He's too inexperienced. He gave a good speech and everyone has translated the ability to speak into the ability to DO.

Anyone can talk. Not everyone can do.

Smoke an mirrors, is Billary is next pres, I''' bet you a week away from PH that Obummer will be her Veep

naive. those other leaders have no respect for him as a representative of the US. so maybe he will have to pull out his Muslim membership card to get a seat at the table.
and then what does that mean to the American people? he's a turncoat?

his words aren't of that much value. and anyone who believes it's so simple is living in lalalala land.

execute. that's what he can't do.
execute is a strong word, takes a strong leader, one who can chop heads.

I hope she chooses Richardson or Biden.

Unfortunately I think that she might win no matter who she choses. Who ever it is will not have the free run that Cheney has, she will keep the VP on a leash..

Obama has the same experience that Abe Lincoln had.
Out of all the dem candidates, he is the best, IMO, but I won't be voting for a dem for prez.
Maybe he should ask Pelosi what to do, she's met with some pretty skanky leaders....BTW-Did her meeting with those skanks ever show any results?

I don't think Lincoln needed some sort of foreign relation experience.
It seems like the two former Presidents Obama gets compared to are the two that are most famous for getting assassinated. Does anyone else find that, a little...odd?
