I don’t think so.

Reminds of me the always humble and connected to reality Oprah Winfrey, who once said - and I'm pretty close to quoting exactly - "From a very early age, I always knew that I was destined for greatness."

It's interesting that they define accomplishment, success, contribution ... as how many people they convinced to do something for them - watch them, vote for them. I won't take away from Oprah that she has built a great empire - I'm not calling her stupid. But in each case, they have built nothing. Oprah's empire is a media empire - meaning - an empire of hypnosis, of entranced eyeballs.

So here are two people who have built nothing of actual value, and see that as greatness.

To them, greatness is merely to be thought of as great, so that one can agree with oneself that one is great.

I can't think of a better summary of what makes a liberal a liberal, a progressive a progressive, a socialist a socialist, a communist a communist, and a tyrant dictator a tyrant dictator - that they think greatness is to be thought of as great -> even if it means destroying or merely making miserable millions of lives.

I guarantee that whatever arrogant act Trump puts on to piss off his enemies and reach his goals, he will judge himself at the end by what he built and what he contributed to life - not just his, as well as the personal integrity with which he did it. (Liberals would not be able to believe the last few words of that sentence because they don't understand integrity.)

Obama will say at the end 'People though I was cool.' But I suspect even he experiences the emptiness in that. I think it was in one of his books that he expressed a certain discomfort when in college he gave a rambling BS impromptu speech outside to a group of students and they all seemed to love what he said. I do think that there are moments, the one's that matter, though he'd never let you see it, where he is perplexed and a bit anxious at the emptiness of his life given how 'great' it was.

Just because he has a block of ice for a brain doesn’t mean he’s cool.

I remember thinking when he was elected, “What a nothing this guy is”.

It still applies.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m guessing this guy is in major scramble mode when he comes face-to-face with God Almighty.

. . .encouragement of Obama was unequivocal. He (Harry Reid) was wowed by Obama’s oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama — a “light-skinned” African American “with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,” as he said privately. Reid was convinced, in fact, that Obama’s race would help him more than hurt him in a bid for the Democratic nomination.

—From the book “Game Change” by Mark Halperin and John Heilemann

How does Dreams from my father demonstrate Obama's talent for using words? Did he help Bill Ayers?

“For all the ups and downs of our lives,” he said, “there wasn’t a moment that I didn’t feel as if I was special—that I was just this special gift to the world.”

If it were not 0bama saying this he’d be thought an arrogant fool.
