the fact that Obama has not only read the Pollan article I linked to the other day (on food) but seems to understand it? (I learned about this from Kottke)
I mean, fine, this doesn’t prove anything. Well, it proves one thing: that the guy has ear-holes into which flows information that comes from sources other than a posse of idiotic yes-men. Which shouldn’t mean that much, but it does, because I have not had this feeling in the last eight years.
Call me crazy, but I want a president who demonstrates that he reads something besides children’s books and the bible.
