47. I think the best thing is to ask them to realistically asses their highest interests

and use use consistent criteria to determine how well Obama's achievements measure up to them. Now's the time for them to see him in action and to make judgments from that, just ask them to apply the same standard to him as to everyone else, to just give him a fair chance. Also ask them to listen to other countering viewpoints from news sources along with their own. If they aren't willing to do that, then they may not be possible to convince. They need other stimuli to come in to do that IMO and if they just shut it down from the start then they might be close to being close-minded
