I agree completely. But it turns out we need to put pressure on Obama. Why I do not know. But he has changed, but only after both the congressional black Caucus and liberals read him the riot act.

He gravitates toward politicos. Rahm, Sperling, Daley, Summers and Geithner. And the two guys he got from my state are dem politicos ( I know them both well and do not like either of them).

But I hear what you are saying. Obama won on a left of center populist platform. That platform is needed and viable now more than ever IMO.

Obama doesn't need my vote, he has it, he neeeds thoughs smart kids and independents that worked their asses off for him, only to watch him not follow through, to vote and he has to go get them somehow and they probably will not settle for Sperling's and Daley's, they will want to see Robert Reichs and Bill Moyers.

I think his best chance is to run another campaign just like 08, but he will need to prove he is not calling "wolf" again.
