Taped interviews have a way of coming back to haunt politicians. And the timing couldnt be better for this gem, brought to us by Weasel Zippers, who dug up this pre-election interview with then-Senator Barack Obama in 2008.
The senator had high expectations for himself, if he were to receive Americans vote for President.
You have to understand that if you seek that office, then you have to be prepared to give your life to it. Essentially, the bargain that I think every President strikes with the American people is, you give me this office, then in turn my fears, doubts, insecurities, foibles, need for sleep, family life, vacations, leisure, is gone. I am giving myself to you.

Why relive this clown’s past?
If we do, we automatically have to relive our own foolishness for installing him.

I think the video is from an October 20, 2006 interview of Obama by Bob Herbert at the Kennedy Library.
Unless he said it more than once.
