It is not often that Veritas is wrong ! but HEALTHCARE REFORM has been his achilles heel and he has failed to persuade the USA public.
His "Blackness" Is also now an issue - his team call his opponents racist behind the scenes at every step. Which is a shame.
As for "CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN" the increase in troops to Afganistan shows nothing has changed. He has stopped torture ( we think ) but war is being waged in a bigger way. The Iraq troops are still there by the way - they pulled OUT of the Cities to bases - that was the only change.
We await OBAMA's first true test - so far World politics has been very quiet - no major issues to get involved in/ But Israel are desperate to bomb Iran - and so there could be something to do later this year.
