The prodigious intelligence of the President, preserved

Did you see

the class Barry Magic held

for the Republicans for an hour and a half

in Baltimore on Friday? If you didn’t, you should watch

every last minute of it, because it’s amazing. They will not be

putting your picture or mine in the dictionary next to

“smart” as long as Barack Obama is extant.

His command of the issues is, in a

word, breathtaking.

What a

mighty, mighty mind.

Would that it grasped leadership.

Oh, would that he

could lead.
