Chauncey was a very kind person.
Correct, Chance was a kind person, not in search of power. Much more to the point Obama is Paul from Six Degrees of Separation. A con man intent of wealth and power who uses his charms on his victims, and of whom we learn nothing, except for his gift of false empathy and his need to take the wealth of others.
Oh yes. There are definitely dissimilarities. But the point I tried to make is that Obama, like Chauncey, was a reflection of people's conceptions ... of what they thought he was, not who he actually was.
There's one other similarity. Note that Chauncey was considered much wiser, smarter than he was. People are still calling Obama smart even after he demonstrates that he's not. Like the Emperor's New Clothes, a large group of people are afraid to tell the truth in fear of being called dumb .... or racist.
