Obama will be a Great President and will lead us through a rough time.....history tells me so.
Looking back at what I consider Great American Presidents....Washinton, Lincoln, and FDR.

They seem to come at around 75 year intervals and about every 16th POTUS.

#1- 1789 - Washington
#16-1860 - Lincoln
#32-1932 - FDR

Obama will be great.....I can feel it.

1. I've said it since I heard about him: he will win and be great. Also,
you're not named Barack Obama, win the Democratic Nomination, and don't become president. Sorry. That's just not how it works in my brain.

3. To me a Great President leads us in difficult times not necessarily good times.

5. Sign I've been on DU too much...
I saw this in GD : P and misread it as "Tweety will be a Great President and will lead us" (there was a thread about him just above it). Guess I should take a break. :)

That said, I feel that too. Let's make it happen!
