So it's harder to maintain the attention of the people with it. It's possible that he may be too much like the Obama we saw in 2004 -- the Obama with a message of hope, compared to the mudslinging we see ad nauseum in the political arena.

Thankfully though, he's presented some very reasonable positions to issues recently. He needs to continue to do this.
Obama has moved black people forward so much but I don't think he will win as Hillary has it in the bag.
The problem with the race for leadership is that only after do we see the real person and wish we'd voted for them.
