More Roosevelt… Less Jimmy Carter… that’s what this brand needs!
Folks, there’s been a lot of scrutiny of President Obama in these first 100 days. It goes with the territory. The attention is brutal no matter who’s in the Oval Office and it always will be.
Exposure is something most marketers covet . . .but over-exposure especially of the wrong features can be deadly for a personal brand.
That is why, Barack Obama –whom I’ve called a first-rate poli-marketer (see the past few weeks FOX Forum posts here)– had better stop behaving like Jimmy Carter and start emulating Roosevelt.
In the last week and a half, he’s said and done things and appeared in ways that could lay the foundation for a negative brand image that no one will be able to reverse.
I can hear the peanut gallery objecting: “But President Obama isn’t oozing Carter-sque doom and gloom.” Fair enough. But he’s oozing something worse: he’s oozing too much intelligence.

I don’t know if he’s too bight, but he sure isn’t too bright.
Obama is barely bright enough to be a dem bulb.
Bight me Bama!
Is this sick humor?
Must have gone to the al baby school of posting
This is a joke, right?
Obama too bright to be president? Huh?? Obama is as bright as a burned out light bulb.
That would be like, smart as a whip, dumb as an ox.
He is a compact fluorescent
Hussein Obama is a member of the elite class of international Counter-Intellectuals.
no no he is a black light
ROFL! No kidding!
Yes! Obombastic is to bight!.....
To bright to be President??? Obama?? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!
Let me get this right. Intelligence is based on ones ability to read from a screen now? If anything he is an excellent actor. Hearing his non-teleprompted speaking skills does not lead me to believe he is more intelligent than anyone else.
he is dumb as a rock in a sock
I don't know, but he's going to have this country tied up in knots before it's over.
If that’s the case I’ll send him a lava light. LOL!!
