So much for all that hopey changey stuff and the glow America would feel electing the first black President





Years from now, historians may regard the <NOBR>2008 election (http://www.debatepolicy.com/#)</NOBR> of Barack Obama as an inscrutable and disturbing phenomenon, a baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the Middle Ages. How, they will wonder, did a man so devoid of professional accomplishment beguile so many into thinking he could manage the world's largest economy, direct the world's most powerful military, execute the world's most consequential job?

Imagine a future historian examining Obama's pre-presidential life: ushered into and through the Ivy League despite unremarkable grades and test scores along the way; a cushy non-job as a "community organizer"; a brief career as a state legislator devoid of legislative achievement (and in fact nearly devoid of his attention, so often did he vote "present"); and finally an unaccomplished single term in United States Senate, the entirety of which was devoted to his presidential ambitions. He left no <NOBR>academic (http://www.debatepolicy.com/#)</NOBR> legacy in academia, authored no signature legislation as legislator.
