COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN RUSSIA INSIDER
"The Russians can't change us, or significantly weaken
us. They are a smaller country, they are a weaker country…”
And you wonder why Obama thinks Russia hacked the DNC?
Or stole Crimea?
Or interfered in Syria?
In recent months, Obama has actually revealed what a
mediocre intellect he has, in addition to his character and personality flaws.
He really is not all that intelligent, not really up to what
the leader of so powerful a country should be.
Bill Clinton was quoted some years back in comments about
"Obama just not having it," and, I don't like saying so, but he was
clearly right. I thought Clinton wrong and nasty at the time, but he was
correct.
Obama has always had a reputation for taciturnity and
secretiveness.
When he was a lecturer at University of Chicago - a
lecturer, never a professor - other people in the faculty commented on his not
socializing at all. Faculty members made some effort, but he remained elusive
as I’ve read from one of them.
His degrees from distinguished universities almost certainly
reflect long-term policies in such American institutions to accept a quota of
applicants whose academic achievement is not fully competitive simply because
they belong to minorities, especially blacks.
They do the same thing in reverse on a limited scale:
children of wealthy, influential families are admitted and even passed without
meeting requirements. George Bush was an outstanding example, a genuinely
dull-minded man with a really “connected” family. Of course, in return places
like Yale later expect handsome endowments later.
I suggest that Obama’s behavior as a lecturer was part of a
lifelong hiding from revealing his inadequacy. He is reasonably bright, but
just not bright enough to have been doing what he was doing and, of course,
what he is doing now.
The suspicion is further confirmed by his reputation for
severely hating leaks and whistleblowers. He is said to be one of the most
severe-minded Presidents on this issue.
He also generally has quiet little family suppers at the
White House too. He is known for not being fond of the big dinners with lots of
distinguished guests.
