Barack Obama promises to accomplish quite a lot if he becomes our next President. These promises are symbolized in his campaign themes: hope and change. But just how likely is he to fulfill his own promise and the promises he has made to the American people?
Judging by his previous career, not very likely. We have seen this movie before in Barack Obama's life, and the end is not a happy one. In fact, when you examine his career in its various dimension, it seems to be marked disturbingly often by failure.
Faced with his failures, he tries to obscure the record; or else he blames mistakes on staffers or other people.
The "successes" he uses as campaign tropes often turn out to be due to the work of others for which he has claimed credit, or to be much less significant than meets the eye. Fortunately, the spell seems to be wearing off and the media has begun to scrutinize his career a bit more, and it has been found wanting......

His entire life revolves around one “black” little circle....from Rev. Wright to his legal work.
bump for later..
One can see the same traits in Deval Patrick... another Marxist-socialist.
I’ve worked with a few “Obama’s” in my day. It sucks.
I hope, as the article says, the spell wears off before election day in November.
Has he ever had what real people would call a job?
That makes it sound as if he was looking. The black editor of the Harvard Law Review? He could go to an interview with his pants on his head and he'd have a job offer from every law firm in the country.
How could this “background” lead to a major book deal just a few years out of law school? Somebody picked this guy out for “special handling” and sustenance. George Soros, maybe?
Great column!
The same reason that he could have gotten a job at any law firm in the country. His type of people are *special*.
Thank you for posting the American Thinker article.
I was queasy when I heard Obama for he first time - now I cannot bear to watch him deceive those who believe his lies.
He is truly a dangerous person to have fooled so many.
The USA and its people will be committing suicide if he is elected. We will enter a period in our modern history like no other and we silently watch it approaching.
Obama is a pathology similar to those madmen who have brought other nations to their knees and we are standing waiting for it to happen to us.
Well, now, they often call me Barry, but my real name is Mister Schmooze.
Publish or perish...unless you're Barack Obama and have powerful friends.

Very true but Obama is only the symptom, not the disease! The nation has terminal carcinoma and Obama is the blood clot that alerts a good oncologist to the fact. Unfortunately, there is no cure, the disease has spread through a critical mass of the electorate, millions of whom are stupid AND ignorant and believe that Obama actually is the one we have all been waiting for. The part that still makes me want to heave is that this utter stupidity is so prevalent among the so-called “super educated”, those who hold “advanced degrees”. Did they go to stupid school to learn to be stupid?
I read today, in a Palestinian newspaper, that enemies of the USA are already lining up jobs for “President Obama” to do for them. They plan on asking Obama for some big airplanes to drop supplies over into Gaza, so that they can still carry on a war and still eat good too.
An unaccomplished, Affirmative Action recipient POS.
