I know that today, Barack Obama is considered a bit of a rock star, perhaps even a messianic leader. I find this most amusing. I don’t think I will ever see Barack Obama as the rock star that others seem to see. This is because I had the opportunity to meet Obama years before the hype. At that time, I saw a man who I thought would be a great president. I still see that same man now.
