What I mean by this is that by not running in this election Obama could very well jeopardize his ability to run in 4 years or forever. Who is to say that waiting or [potentially] getting more political experience than he already has would work in his favor 4 or 8 years from now when all the faces vying for the Presidency have changed and domestic and international situations have changed.
Note that I think Obama is no different than the rest. He's a politician to the core.
