Barack Obama's nouvelle vague
We know he's a "hope monger," but the rest of Obama's unconventional message is elusive.
By Walter Shapiro [2008-01-01]

  • actually

    Kennedy ran on a platform of hardlining against the Soviets. He accused Nixon of being soft against America's enemies because Nixon was a part of an administration that had seen America ostensibly fall behind the USSR in the weapons race. Kennedy might remind you of Obama because he is young and attractive and articulate, but Kennedy certainly did not run on a platform of 'hope.'
