UPDATE: From the “Even a Broken Clock is Right Twice a Day” file, here’s former President Jimmy Carter giving his opinion on Sen. Barack Obama in 2006 on the Charlie Rose show….

“I just don’t think he’s got yet the proven substance or experience to… to be the president.”

I guess that’s why Carter has now decided to endorse him, huh? Maybe he felt a thrill going up his leg, like Chris Matthews did.

Thomas Sowell skillfully addresses one of my main problems with Obama:

…do the media even care whether Senator Obama knows what he is talking about? Or is the symbolism of “the first black President” paramount, even if that means a President with cocky ignorance at a time of national danger?

The media have been crucial to Barack Obama’s whole candidacy. His only achievements of national significance in his entire career have been media achievements and rhetorical achievements.

Perhaps his greatest achievement has been running as a candidate with an image wholly incompatible with what he has actually been doing for decades. This man who is now supposedly going to “unite” us has for years worked hand in glove, and contributed both his own money and the taxpayers’ money, to people who have sought to divide us in the most crude demagogic ways.

With all his expressed concern about the war in Iraq, he has not set foot in Iraq for more than two years– including the very years when progress has been made against the terrorists there.

You don’t need to know the facts when you have cocky ignorance and the media behind you.
