I double dog dare Obama to actually get in front of a genuinely random group of 1,000 Americans and open the floor to questions – he won’t do it, of course, because that is not in the script:
…while the online question portion of the White House town hall was open to any member of the public with an Internet connection, the five fully identified questioners called on randomly by the president in the East Room were anything but a diverse lot. They included: a member of the pro-Obama Service Employees International Union, a member of the Democratic National Committee who campaigned for Obama among Hispanics during the primary; a former Democratic candidate for Virginia state delegate who endorsed Obama last fall in an op-ed in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star; and a Virginia businessman who was a donor to Obama’s campaign in 2008.
This is the change we need? A President so afraid of having to answer a tough question that he doesn’t dare put himself in a position where one might come his way?
The Teleprompter Presidency, boys and girls; that is all Obama is…someone who can read a speech.
