A Tale from the Street: Why the 30 Percent Solution is Important
- Not the Only Role Model Anymore
Coming home from temple yesterday afternoon, I heard a father and his daughter talking as they walked past me. The daughter, who looked like she was in the tween years, was complaining about being short.
The father's response took my breath away.
"Do you think Sarah Palin is tall? Do you think Hillary Clinton is tall?" he asked his daughter.
Believing In Action
I've noticed that many of the Obamans who interact with me tend to conflate beliefs with action. Perhaps this is why they support Obama, as he suffers from the same confusion:
Kroft: Senator McCain made some of the same noises this week, blaming Wall Street greed, promising reform and oversight, and new regulations to protect investors. What's the difference between the two of you?
Obama: Well, the difference is, I think, that I've got a track record of actually believing in this stuff. (emphasis added)
