President Obama's former doctor claims that the president lacks passion, feeling and humanity

Scheiner said that he believes the president miscalculated politically and that the health reform is ultimately doomed to fail. Worse, Scheiner doubts the character of a man who holds the highest and most influential office in America: “I think there is too much of the University of Chicago in him. By which I mean he’s academic, lacks passion and feeling, and doesn’t have the sense of humanity that I expected.”

Sorry, I couldn't see from the original post that it was Scheiner that you were quoting. At any rate, he's wrong. It was a cheap shot against the U of Chicago for the reasons I noted earlier. If Scheiner had noticed, Obama was manifesting these personality traits long before arriving at the U of C. That detachment noticed by him and by the-girl-at-Columbia-who-was-his-friend probably stems from his earliest childhood and adolescence with FMD.
