".....[Valerie] Jarrett, a Chicago associate of Obama's who now serves in the opaque but highly influential role of senior adviser to the president, told biographer David Remnick in his 2010 book The Bridge: The Life and Rise of Barack Obama:
I think Barack knew that he had God-given talents that were extraordinary. He knows exactly how smart he is. He knows how perceptive he is. He knows what a good reader of people he is. And he knows that he has the ability the extraordinary, uncanny ability to take a thousand different perspectives, digest them and make sense out of them, and I think that he has never really been challenged intellectually. So what I sensed in him was not just a restless spirit but somebody with such extraordinary talents that had to be really taxed in order for him to be happy. He's been bored to death his whole life. He's just too talented to do what ordinary people do.
Read that quote again, attempting to block out the knowledge of who's talking and who she's talking about. You'll realize this is how a delusional mother tries to justify why her son is getting a D average.
This is where Mr. Obama's generational sympathies steer him perilously off-course. It's not just that he embraces pop culture immersion. It's not just that he exhibits a self-regard bordering on solipsism (no president has abused the first-person singular pronoun with such reckless abandon). It's that he is acutely representative of his generation's sense of entitlement.
In every phase of his professional career, Mr. Obama's accomplishments have failed to rise beyond the acquisition of a title......"

Jarrett is not of this world. She comes from a dark, evil place. Bring her out of the shadows and into the light. She is running this country (into the ground).
Remember the quote from Evan Thomas, Newsweek editor...”he’s kind of a God”.
"Clytus, I'm bored...."
What a bunch of hooey.
What a bunch of hooey.
VJ’s remarks I meant
She's evil, mentally ill, and a first-rate BS artist, all in one.
No, he is the product of the "everybody wins," theology that has permeated several generations. Everybody gets a ribbon, everybody wins, nobody keeps score, everybody is entitled...and no...you don't need to be accountable for your failures.
“...I think Barack knew that he had God-given talents that were extraordinary. ...”
1. Valarie obviously does not think very well - if at all.
2. The Obamadork has no talents whatsoever. Period
He is an incompetent cretin who would fail at digging ditches without the support of idiot liberals who have participated in faking virtually everything the piece of sewage has ever claimed to do.
And you, Valarie - by participating in this - are an ignorant sl*t.
And that’s the twuth.
One might think “too talented to do what ordinary people do” might be a good thing in a President. Unfortunately what Jarrett means by “what ordinary people do” is accomplish something.
I don't even know what to say to that. This is a perfect example of the liberal delusion. THEY believe this crap and somehow it makes perfect logical sense to them. How? This is how they justify obfuscation of any facts and logic in any debate. All opponents are too stupid, especially if they start listing facts.
Yeah he’s “gifted” but only if you count affirmative action as the gift.
Oh yeah .... he's so damn smart that he knows about seven more states that none of the rest of us ever heard of.
From his high school days in Hawaii to his current job in the White House, Barack Obama’s career has been that of a hollow, ethnic token.
Mmmmm.......Valerie musta written that claptrap while kneeling underneath Obama’s desk.
Which is why she got the WH job.
Obama and the Chi/thugs get off scot-free time after time, crime after crime. Add remember....if you don't worship Obama, Valerie's gonna getchou.
I believe Jarrett is defacto president. She is the liaison between the administration and a Chicago-based cabal of international influence brokers. This group sells executive actions, national policies decisions, treaties, trade agreements, waivers, pardons, etc. to entities ranging from billionaire investors to hedge funds and large corporations up to foreign nations.
An example of this is Obama’s anti-fossil fuel policy. On the surface this is a typical knee-jerk progressive stand on energy. But it includes public oil leases, offshore drilling bans, regulatory harassment including injunctions and lawsuits, propaganda. The Keystone pipeline policy is easy to understand in light of the Obama clients it benefits: Warren Buffett, George Soros, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, etc.
Obama’s relationship with Iran began before he was elected and includes constant back-channel communications with the regime while maintaining a public hard line. Likewise with Russia. These policies are bought and paid for through the offshore transfer of cash, precious metals, real estate and other assets.
Some Obama Administration actions don't make sense until you imagine a White House under the control of the Chicago crime syndicate.
Pundits on the Left and the Right have referred to Obama as “enigmatic,” non-traditional and unreadable. But he's easy to figure out when viewed as a corrupt, big-city-machine politician who is the public face of the biggest scam in history.
