OBAMA 'Americans aren't looking for someone who can divide-theyre looking for someone who will lead'
Barack Obama today:

It's easy to rile up a crowd by stoking anger and division. But that's not what we need right now in the United States. The times are too serious. The challenges are too great.

The American people aren't looking for someone who can divide this country -- they're looking for someone who will lead it. We're in a serious crisis -- now, more than ever, it is time to put country ahead of politics. Now, more than ever, it is time to bring change to Washington so that it works for the people of this country that we love.

Obama Prepared Remarks, quoted on TPM

6. This country has been leaderless since
the corporate media decided 'Monica' was more important than everything else. *, of course, has no leadership skulls....he's just the prom king.
