First, a slight error of fact. Obama is 45, this year. He was born 1961. Not that it makes a smattering of difference in the overall scheme of things. Truth is God. Anyone who can deal with truth is right for the job of president. It is the major failing of all leaders, philosophers, scientists and media commentators.
Obama is in touch with truth, but admits that he does does not know all that is true. A willingness to find the vital truth is the formula for both a win at the polls and a win in the history books. He has an instinctual understanding of the difference between truth as a transcendental lord over all that is true or to become true, and truth as facts, reality and ordinary events.
Obama is a blast of fresh air for us who have been in the musty closet of politics most of our lives or approached the decaying flesh of a political animal dead for some time but not buried yet. We have had others like him, but we missed the opportunities. We had others who got there only to find that truth is a hard sell in the halls of government. Obama has the guts, charisma, and the "audacity of hope". That is a winning formula.
