...or so some progressives would seem to think, given their gushing concerning Barack Obama.
Take for example liberal television/movie director and producer Rob Reiner, talking recently about how he thinks an Obama presidency would change things:
There'd be love and respect, but I think you'd have it even bigger than Clinton. With someone like Obama, I think the whole country, the whole world will coalesce. Every election is about change, and change takes a long time because there are big issues that can't be changed overnight. But the one thing that will change dramatically is how we're viewed around the world. Once Obama is in there, the world will view us in an entirely different light. And that, to me, is a good thing...
Did you get that? The "whole word will coalesce"! All because Obama was elected!!
Bosnian!! Serbian!! Palestinian!! Israeli!!! All those differences, I guess, will just magically disappear!!!!
Wow. Will Obamamaniacs ever get a grip?
