He has no academic publications to his name -

Mr. Obama - especially with his abstract promises of "hope, faith, and change" - is certainly not apart from the glamorous celebrity side-show that has become politics. His vacuous campaign is being driven not by his ideas but by his branding - the "cult of personality" smell is certainly in the air. All of the links in your post were nice to follow, although your A HREF tags are messed up. Not a problem, though - they are easily modified in the browser window.

Thanks! I did all the formatting by hand, so thank you for pointing that out - I'll work on it.

Sorry! I'm in Japan now so I shan't be very available.

Thanks for this post.

"Don’t do it because you’re in love. He doesn’t deserve that."
-that is a point that can't be overstated right now.

Anon -- "cult of personality" is right.

One of my favorite blogs tags all Obama posts with the tag "How Barack Obama brought me to orgasm."

Thank you! As for the Obamagasms, the man does send a thrill down Chris Matthews's leg.
