(6,064 posts)especially when it comes to politicians. Obama is smart, has the ability to calculate all the alternatives to a situation. There is not another Democrat that I would say had a better grip on the job of President of the U.S.. Elizabeth Warren comes close to being a hero when it comes to getting to the bottom line of a critical situation. We have many smart Dems out there, Biden, Howard Dean, to mention a few, but, Obama appears to me to be a critical thinker, not selfish, not a problem with ego. Bottom line, just because I don't want to drop bombs on Syria doesn't mean that Obama doesn't know what he is doing and I still feel safer with him than anyone else at this point. Just had to rant. Politics is rough and most of us don't have a clue what political strings will produce a good outcome for our country at this critical time........
