A outra parte do discurso de Obama
Obama's Explanation Won't Fly in Long Run, por Rich Lowry
In the end, Obama made the case for the respectability of a man who is a hater -- and did it, amazingly enough, in a speech devoted to ending divisiveness. At one moment, Obama said we needed a searching national dialogue about race; at another, he suggested we needed to get beyond all that and unite around a clichéd left-wing agenda of anti-corporatism. But whatever Obama is advocating at a given moment, his solution is always himself in his glorious personhood, the salve to the country's ills.
