I've seen a preview of the interview. Obama's pretended humility cannot cover up his blatant narcissism.

Democrats have talked endlessly about the importance of narrative - missing in President Obama's case. We've heard over and over about the lack of smart messaging and the president's failure to communicate. If only Obama could better express himself, all would be well.

Go Obama!
