His words have iron in them. Wish he was running for the Senate from Washington ..... or, why couldn't HE be President....? This man will cause some real introspection on the political scene. We need more candidates who can speak with his passion and conviction. Agree or not, I hope you share this with others. It’s about debating where we want our country to go now and for our children’s future. youtube.com

The jokes about Barack Obama's close relationship with his teleprompter have been constant since he became president. Rush Limbaugh's poked fun at it on the radio. Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi bantered about it during an international summit. Obama himself skewered his affinity for the speaking crutch in an appearance before reporters. But now, a year into Obama's administration, the subject has taken on more of an edge -- and become a symbol of a larger debate over whether Obama has lost touch with the people. Republican Sarah Palin mocked Obama over the weekend when she referred to the conservative Tea Party movement as being "much bigger than any charismatic guy with a teleprompter."

shtheadObama himself has acknowledged that his political problems of late have been caused in part by his failure to connect with ordinary Americans still feeling economic pain. "We lost some of that sense of speaking directly to the American people about what their core values are," he said after Democrats lost a crucial Senate seat in Massachusetts last month. shtheadObama's critics point to his podium and teleprompter as evidence of the disconnect.
