I think Obama will be the "first Obama-like " President |
|
and here is hoping that many, many more will follow in his big footsteps.

1. I agree, he'll be a new standard. |

He'll be the first Obama-esque President.

Did you know JFK was lucky enough to meet a young Bill Clinton when he was just 44 years old?

Obama supporters are always comparing him to great leaders. But he's nothing like Obama.

4. I disagree - Obama resembles Obama in many ways. |
|
True, there are some important differences - we must not expect Obama to be as great a leader as Obama. But most of the details of his personal life, and many of his key political positions, are essentially the same as Obama's, and I think he may in the end turn out to be even greater than him.

5. haven't all Presidents been unique ? |
|
even when you put all the great ones together and all the bad ones together they are still different .
i think Obama has the potential to be one of the great ones that could rank up there with FDR and Lincoln.

6. No, the 22nd and 24th presidents were identical. |
|
Other than that they've all been unique, although some have been fairly similar.
