Wanna understand Pr. Obama? Listen to Abe Lincoln: [DON'T MISS]

"Public sentiment is everything.
With public sentiment, nothing can fail;
without it nothing can succeed.
Consequently he who molds public
sentiment, goes deeper than he who
enacts statutes or pronounces decisions.
He makes statutes and decisions possible
or impossible to be executed." 

Abraham Lincoln
