From: Jim Devine I have some friends who argue that Obama is a one-term president and thus can (and _should_) try to shake things up, reform the system, build the power of the DP for the future, etc., because he's really got nothing to lose politically. It's clear that BHO didn't get that message. In some ways he seems like a disappointed rationalist, who first tried to convince the politicians with reason and then decided that all he could do was subordinate reason to the power of the politicians.
^^^^^^^ CB: Did these people send this message to Congress ? Is it really surprising that Obama wouldn't follow to the advice of people calling him a one term president and telling him he has nothing to lose politically ( smile) ? R these the people who developed the strategy by which he got elected ? Je le doute. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
