Re: Senator Obama, You Are No Ronald Reagan (none / 0)

*I'll repeat what I wrote in an earlier diary**:

Obama specifically sites the TIMES which set in motion the presidencies of Reagan and JFK. Of course, the JFK part is conspicuously missing from this diary.

Anyone who wants to watch the full interview, check it out here. It's a good interview and this is why I like Barack.

He;s no JFK either (none / 0)

You are responding to the wrong diary with this comment. I expressly did NOT take the cheap political shot. Stoller took care of that. I took on Obama's claim that he can be a transformational figure the way Reagan was in 1980. It is ahistorical to compare Obama's campaign to Reaganb's 1980 campaign. It would be nice if you actually addressed the argument I made.
