He talks pretty but can he lead?


"He talks pretty but can he lead?" We sure hear that a lot from people who prefer someone other than Obama to be the next president. We're supposed to get real nervous lest he be all fluff and no stuff. Well Hrmph! At the chief executive level it's all about talking pretty. If your own heart is in the right place, you've got your facts down, and you are eloquent, you can win the hearts and minds of others at home and abroad. Add to that the ability to select the right staff to analyze, strategize and implement and you pretty much have the makings of a good president. Senator Obama seems quite capable of hiring the right staff to make his campaign successful.

I think you and him (and me) are in agreement.
