Obama: The “Biggest Mistake” I’ve Made As President Is Not Being A Good Storyteller…
As he campaigns for re-election, President Obama is ruminating over the biggest mistake of his first term — and it might surprise supporters and critics alike.
In the president’s view, he has not been a good enough storyteller, putting policy goals ahead of laying out a clear narrative for the American public.
“The mistake of my first term. . .was thinking that this job was just about getting the policy right. And that’s important,” Obama told “CBS This Morning” anchor Charlie Rose in a White House interview that will be broadcast Sunday and Monday.
“But the nature of this office,” the president added, “is also to tell a story to the American people that gives them a sense of unity and purpose and optimism, especially during tough times.”
The answer might seem incongruous. After all, when the going gets tough, Obama has been known to turn to his rhetorical prowess by delivering a big speech. He did it again last month when he flew to Cleveland for an address on the economy after taking heat from Republican rivals over a comment at a news conference that the private sector was “doing fine.”

So, obama is not satisfied with his bullshit so far and now wants to step it up a few levels. No wonder he chose Joe the Gaffe Biden as VP. They complement each other.
