If only Obama could find a way of speaking out strongly, again and again, he might really change the direction of the country. Domestically, the political dynamics are against him so why not command whatever bully pulpit he can find and shout out the needs of the times: gross economic inequalities; good jobs in useful activities (not simply consumption or for whatever increases the bottom line; and most importantly--opposition to the mantra of growth which results in extinctions, pollution, and the unthinking alterations of nature and the course of evolution. The Roosevelts are, indeed, a great example Obama might follow in his last couple of years in office. Even if the Congress goes Republican and he has to veto lots of legislation, he could, at least, set a progressive tone for the longer run.
