Admittedly, I have not yet clicked on the link.
And I Love My President.
But...there really is always one of these, isn't there?
tgards79, you have breached a rubicon.
I want to talk about communication skills.
Now I am going to read the link reference.

Snip-
From health care forward, Obama has not found his voice, except for singular, moving events such as Newtown or Gabby Giffords (and Ferguson to a lesser extent.)  But those events provide comfort only in their immediacy; he cannot seem to ever get it right on his more enduring policies.  If I were Obama, I would bring David Gergen back to the White House for the umpteenth time, a wise old hand who has served both parties admirably.  I doubt we would be discussing the “optics” quite so much.

I remember Gergan. I liked him once upona time.

But this is about optics. I want to talk about the communication skills of President Obama. At this point some might think that I have breached a rubicon by saying that.
But...
He is the most scrutinized president in the history of the USA. I read that, somewhere, so don't quote me.

But...

the politics of exclusion is a disastrous course

I'm grateful that you read my article, recommended it and responded. I wish I had a better understanding of what you meant by your reply! I say this with utmost respect, I was just a bit confused. Thanks!
