Campaigner In Chief -- to an unprecedented degree

i know we've discussed this at length over the years, but lately it's become unbearable...
EVERY. SINGLE. WORD. out of Presbola's mouth is either touting His accomplishments or blaming the Republicans in office or their pedestrian supporters for everything that is going wrong. I mean, with very, very, rare exception. And then just to make an unfunny joke to distract from a gaffe or failure.
I know politicians are politicians, but am i wrong that the extent to which this POS does this is unprecedented for a president, and by a large margin?
He lives in the fray and never truly rises above a situation to lead. And I'm an ardent critic of the idea of a "leader" in a free society. Our leader is the rule of law. But he has eschewed that completely and in the limited roles in which the president should be a leader, he has utterly failed.
I guess this is sort of out of nowhere, but I've caught more audio and video clips of this fraud than usual this week and had to vent.

Obama has never risen above his Chicago-style dirty politics mindset. Even now. All he know is manipulate, attack your enemy and distort the facts. The thought of actual leadership never even crosses his mind.

He will never take responsibility for anything. My all-time favorite Obama rationalization was when he did some magazine interview at the end of his 5th year in office, and the interviewer asked Obama what he thought was the reason for the 15% decline in his approval rating over the past 12 months.
Obama's response? "Well, some people don't like me because I'm black."
Who were these people who took 5 years to figure out he was black? Of course, the media chose to look the other way on that one. I think that's why Obama says some of this stupid shite, because he knows the "professional, objective" media would rather kiss an Ebola patient than hold Dear Leader responsible for his insane excuses.

He's a lot like most of the electorate. Most people can't "rise above the fray" in order to make a selfless commitment for the common good. Most people are looking out for #1.
Obama is like most folks, so, I guess that why the US electorate put him in office twice.
Hard lesson learned, I hope, about voting for people just as venial as most people.

He would be re-elected tomorrow.

Do you really think so? That is depressing to contemplate. I really think you're wrong.

Every change in the franchise to vote has been to empower Democrats. First it was women. Then the voting rights act for blacks. Then lowering the age from 21 to 18. Then no voter ID required. Their only failure was an attempt in the 80s to allow prisoners to vote.
So, yes, I think he would be elected again.
