2. That is why it's pointless to primary Obama to move him to the left
because if you believe he did not previously keep his promises, then why would he now. He would simply tell you what you needed to hear (based on the premise you thought he lied before) or simply allow you to believe things the way you want to believe them to be whether that is actually true or not.

Obama is what is what he is and likely always has been. Seemingly, many Democrats on the left got all caught up in the excitement of the 2008 campaign. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, not just looking good.
