Thanks, all, for your thoughts. Obviously, I find the perspectives of Fester and CB convincing.
Kate, maybe we need to start at the beginning.
Is your objection to Obama that he's not who he says he is? Or that he's polarizing? Or what, exactly?
Before I begin to take seriously the sources you throw at me, I need some more context, e.g., what are you trying to illustrate, exactly?
I see you make a lot of appeals to authority, which frankly I'm naturally sceptical of, which is why I'm asking you to make the argument in your own words, then, if necessary, I can go to those sources for clarification. But in general, I'm more interested in your ideas than theirs.
