i was bored with obama for a few months before his iowa speech, when he said "do you want a president that will OBEY the constitution!?" that got me. but mostly, i would agree with the writer on this one. i don't want to hear a poetic vision of hope that i've already heard him say in another speech, or quote the Great Dr. MLK Jr. again. i would rather hear an authentic version of Obama, which in my dream, is even better than the one he's creating with the speech theater.
