With people losing their homes, and not being able to refinance existing homes to pay off credit cards because the banks and mortgage companies changed the rules without telling anyone, do you think we could get a president to stop having beers with people whose problems are minor and focus on folks like me who have real problems that are solveable with a little help, Guess that would make too much sense, huh!

Hi Art, For the sake of saving Afghanistan from Taliban take-over and threatening US/NATO forces, I would say mobilizing the mainstream Afghan society vis-a-vis Facebook and using Obama marketing strategy to win. Obama was named "Advertising Age's" Best Marketer of the Year for 2008.

God save them if they get a president that comes close to resembling Obama. I agree that he did run a brilliant marketing campaign using words like "hope and change" created by focus groups to sucker people in mass. It will be studied for generations.
