Now if only he could bring that natural understanding that he has to issues like human rights and justice for all.

Obama has empathy, but I agree that it needs to inform policy more than it has.

I've already worn these pants twice so they're set to go to charity for a tax write off anyways.
I'm REALLY rich... you'all.

(12,272 posts)He considered her point of view, and alleviated any anxiety she had. I like how he referred to himself as the president, not Barack Obama or "me".
Mitt Rmoney would have said "me" and would not have been anywhere near truly gracious. Mitt might have thought it clever to joke that she should be glad it wasn't a gun.
