Something about Barack Obama bothers me. I don’t quite like his “Look at me, I am your only hope” attitude that he tries to bestow in speech rallies. At times he sounds like a politician giving a rather boring sermon on life, equality, humility and all that shit. At other times he casts himself as the savior of the world and the planet. At other times he speaks of idealism and how everything in his world can be achieved through hope and love and what nots.
The thing is, I find Barack Obama too nice to be a politician. Unlike, say Manmohan Singh who pretty much was a backface of his party until he was thrust to the job, Barack Obama is actually fighting for the spot. I am not comparing either individuals, but Obama’s goodiness seems to be projecting a falsehood, at least to me.
It would be nice if he just behaved like just another politician, and acted like one. At least, he would be believable!
Oh well, that’s my political rant for this election.
