so there are two teleprompter screens.. one to the left and one to the right of the president.
Isn't it usually THREE.. one to each side and another in the middle so the person giving the speech doesn't have to jerk from side to side a la Stevie Wonder? he never looks at the camera or TV directly which I think is a bummer...
I realize most people won't pick up on it or care but am just curious..
I'm in the tank for Obama.. always have been.. will miss him... hope to meet him some day.. proud to say I knocked on doors for him (and more so for me because the 8 years of W came close to killing me...at the time I lived 6 blocks from the White House and I found it oppressive/depressing)... maybe I think Obama was a bit too cautious at the beginning...too many attempts to try to work with Republicans..wasted too much political capital....not ambitious enough perhaps on job creation.....but having said all of that I think he has been a superlative leader...without doubt the best president of my lifetime... its been slim pickings though.... Carter (I was too young I guess but I remember my dad getting 20% interest YEARLY on his US savings accounts at Pioneer Federal...something wrong with that)...? Reagan (ugh.. I really hated him..although time has helped me see he was effective even if I don't like what he did), Bush, Clinton (I didn't vote for him the first time.. I knew what he was.....), W?
W is one of the five worst presidents in AMerican history..comfortably..
