I have struggled for years to pin Obama down.

To me, he doesn't come off as a narcissist. I don't see the cocksure egotism of a Newt Gingrich, for instance, in Obama. To me, he seems more like a mascot who was handled perfectly for years, groomed for this position. And now it is all falling apart.

To me, he's like a robot or an alien who has been told what to do, what to say, how to look, etc. But he doesn't actually get it.

He may just be a completely empty vessel...

He's a partially willing participant in his own manipulation. At some level he knows he's being played, but for reasons of his own, he complies. In his arrogance, he believes he's dealing with the devil he knows. In reality, he's pwned by the devil he doesn't. Namely, himself. He's so completely jaded, he's unwilling to be willing, if that makes any sense. He's isn't willing to appraise himself in terms of himself; only in terms of the system he genuflects before.

We call this insecurity. Though it's never such a benign oversight as the inoffensiveness of the term suggests. Insecurity trumps wilful malice every time, and twice on sundays. The one is lack of awareness, whilst the other is weakness of character and passivity. The latter as eminently more useful to his puppet masters.

He's by no means unique in this regard. Only the latest and most visible example.

To recapitulate, he's the emperor wearing his new clothes.
