obama ?

[anneasquith]

i watch obama^s speech today, i do believe he is as charismatic as jf kennedy, would you vote for him in an election ?

[237SJ]

Yes I like Obama and I think he`s more charismatic than JFK because he doesn`t have the dodgy "connections" that Kennedy had

[DeadEndStreet]

No

[RATTER15]

He may need a little more than charisma but yes, why not?

[jno]

what, rather than Nick Clegg? Never!

[rockyracoon]

Don't know if I'd vote for him, I don't know enough about his policies, but the man can carry a speech, he was very good in Parliament today.

[anneasquith]

jno.... who^s nick clegg ?

[DTCwordfan]

he's from Chicago and he has dodgy connections - ask about who financed his "mansion" there - the "donor" has been sent down for a stay at HMs no His President's Pleasure.

Chicago was highly influential on JFK getting the vote in Illinois thanks to Joe K and his "cronies"......the number of votes involved in that fiasco was far smaller than GB in Florida re the chads and all that.......that information fact shut my big-mouthed US "Milly" up who is a committed Democrat when it was pointed out to her.

Mil = Mother in Law

[B00]

Dunno, but he's definitely fanciable isn't he?

[237SJ]

I thought he was from Hawaii?

[rov1100]

Yes definately, but I wish Cameron wasn't so trigger happy trying to cojole him into upping the war efforts especially in Libya.

[anneasquith]

cameron is in awe of him, and will agree with anything suggested by obama. imo

[DTCwordfan]

So Rov, you are prepared to allow some murderous loon like Gadaffi, a la Hitler, murder his own people. Glad I don't live near you.....

[askyourgran]

No. I don't think he has what it takes.

[RATTER15]

DT, are you sure Rov1100 doesnt live near you, maybe a neighbour :-)

[DTCwordfan]

I agree gran - a little too PR driven I think....and the speech today, though well reasoned and constructed, it lacked true leadership and inspiration in answering the question that begged itself, "What I will do or what David and I will do.

Answering this would have put some concepts of leadership and plans together to give a distinct forward conclusion to a well argued speech, the true mark of a leader by the way......

DC now has his opportunity to make his International Statesman mark, mind you, with that absence from OB.

[WuTang]

I see the Pretentious Cruciverbalist is rushing around the Topics again,peddling

his - First thing that pops into his head - two-bit opinions

[askyourgran]

What are yours wu tang? - apart from critizing someone elses. A little more input and less sarcasm = yes!

[WuTang]

I dont know enough about President Obama,or his policies
