Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
If Barack Obama ran for president, I would eagerly vote for him.
On the other hand, I respect his desire to gain more experience and reluctance to run so early in his career.
In fact it’s that very reluctance that is part of why I like him so much.
Strategically, both for him and for the Democrats, I think his best bet is to accept a vice presidential spot in ’08.
Win or lose, he’ll be in good position then for his own presidential run in ’12 or ’16.
