Wow, that was questionable.
And these Lincoln and Kennedy comparisons are ubiquitous. I’m assuming it’s because Lincoln is perceived to be the most liberal of presidents? And Kennedy, OK, a martyr for our times, but… Whatever, it’s not time for a history lesson.
So far though, Obama seems like more of a blank canvas for people to project their hopes, desires, and beliefs upon than a man. I think him being in office is great as a gesture of equality, but don’t get ahead of yourselves, and don’t forget… he’s a politician.

I don’t feel the song, but I dig the sentiment. As for the Kennedy and Lincoln references, those are clear and the reason for them are obvious – both were men of the people, interested in change, interested in common ground and most importantly, likable.
Obama is all of those and the comparisons are apt.
