Buffet likely won't go that far. He'll limit himself to criticizing this policy or that.

Nobody is perfect and that includes Obama. For example, he is wrong to support that Honduran President when what that country is doing is protecting them from a Chavez-like takeover and making Honduras into a Dictatorship for life. However, when it comes to renewable energy and oil independence, Obama is 100% correct. But then in the execution of that goal, the Dem Congress is falling short with bills that are far from perfect. That's my take. Buffet is probably thinking along similar lines. Only ideologues or very biased people draw black and white lines and say, "either you are with me or against me". A more intelligent, unbiased approach recognizes that people and issues are complex and that people are allies on some issues and opponents on others. Recognizing that is an important political and diplomatic edge. Apparently, these concepts are lost on you.
