If there is hostility toward the president it is more a result of his policies, his attitudes, and his lack of preparedness for the position he holds.

Racism? I don't see it.

I concur, Jim. Well said. I would like to think that we're of the same mind here and that we judge based on performance (or lack thereof..) Mr Obama was not qualified based on previous experiences and that has been demonstrated in his inability to lead. The buck stops with him - regardless of what he says - he is responsible for creating an atmosphere that can foster bi-partisan cooperation. He has failed miserably in this..

There's plenty of blame to be spread but at the end of the day, he is the president and he is responsible for leading this country. Remember that a leader without a following is just a guy taking a walk..

I like your closing, Glenn. As a leadership example when Reagan took office I really wondered how he was going to do - a Hollywood actor with no international experience. However, he very quickly used his strong leadership and powers of persuasion to surround himself with true talent - icons from business and industry who had proven their capabilities by leading their companies successfully. He could then rely on sound advice when things got tough, and with his acting background he had the speaking part down pat. He was very adept dealing with people at all levels, from leaders of other countries to the rank & file across the board. Turns out Regan was a pretty smart cookie, IMO.
