I know what you're saying though - he has plans, but no idea how to implement them, but then again isn't that what advisor's are for? Isn't that what his appointed employees are for?

If you want an idea as to what a guy who knows how to speak well can do, and how dangerous he can be, look toward France. In his first 10 months, he did very little, but once all the pieces were in place, the tornado arrived without relent.

Maybe I'm wrong, but it looks like his pieces are being put into play before the real game begins.
Perhaps he CAN make some things happen, and I'm sure he will. I hope he does! But right now, he is making promises his ass can't keep. His ideas and plans have to be voted on. Just because he wants to do something, it doesn't mean he can do it. There are checks and balances in place for this very reason. Though, Bush didn't seem to worry about those so perhaps Obama won't either.

I was rooting for him out of the gate. And when I hear him talk, I think he is brilliant. But in reality, he has never be in charge of anything and now he's running the nation.

However, I think him reaching out to the Muslim world is a very good idea. The USA is going to need all the Muslim ass kissing he can do over the next few years. He needs to be kissing everyones ass, and he is doing so. So maybe, just maybe it will pay off in the end. Buuuut.... just in time for some other dip shit to take office and screw it all up again.
