Well...theres also the possibility that, being black, and having a Muslim middle name may make him think that he has to work extra hard to come to the center (as many Neanderthals in this forum [who will likely reply to this message] will attest).

But, Obama shouldnt work to please them-they won't vote for him anyway...and this country needs BIG change-and moving to the center is not going to do it.
This is how the political system works, it shouldn't be that surprising. People try and appeal to the voter, then they do what they have to do. I won't be surprised if it takes until Obama's second term/ a new president to be elected before the war in iraq is ended. AKA "typical political shmoozing" yes. haha.
