THIS IS THE GUY LECTURING OTHER BLACKS ON THEIR SOCIAL PATHOLOGIES?:

'2 people who love each other': THE OBAMAS | Michelle's brother once said of Barack: 'Nice guy. Too bad he won't last.' He was wrong. (STEFANO ESPOSITO, 7/13/08, suntimes.com)

It took two years for Obama to finally propose. Though she knew he didn't fear commitment, Michelle had become a bit irritated with his struggle over whether marriage had become an outdated institution.

Did he, or did he not, overcome his doubts to do all the right things in his personal life?

This seems like a cheap shot.

Good grief. Of course he "didn't fear commitment"--he feared the broken relationships he experienced growing up. After Bill Clinton, is it really that hard to see the obvious desperate need to be loved caused by the lack of a father, and to see that we don't need that in a president?

He did what politics required. Meanwhile, he says he wants to kill his grandchildren.

Does it really matter why he did the right thing? Isn't it enough that he did it?

Yes, hypocrisy is one of the highest virtues in a leader. You just need to not let your slip show.
