Wow...

I find that it's usually people with the shallowest understanding of politics (or just no political integrity) who say "Barack Obama is all style and no substance/has no experience/is naive/has no accomplishments." The videobites you see on 10 o'clock news of politicians are never policy proposals and making such an assertion requires more research. Here's a piece I thought might be an interesting starting point.

In spite of all that, the following video is really disheartening. It shows at least one Obama representative isn't bothered by the fact that he only sees in Obama the ability to unite people. As my friend Alex Dushku likes to say, uniting people is only valuable if it's for the purpose of achieving worthwhile goals (sorry for messing with the wording, Alex).
