The Miracle Worker?

My only concern is that an unrealistic expectation for sudden and immediate change hangs over Obama’s head. There won’t be any quick fixes and I don’t think he can emphasize that enough to the American people. Change takes time. Certainly, it took a long time to get into the current mess that the country is in and I sincerely hope that nobody expects our new president to fix it simply by the snap of his fingers and the signing of a new bailout plan.

Hopefully, the vast majority of people are intelligent enough to realize that this is not realistic. Yet, at the same time, I hear comments from others that makes me worry. Obama is not Jesus. He’s just a man. He’s not a miracle worker. He was not born in a manger. He, alone, can’t fix this mess. And even with myriad geniuses and experts in his camp, CHANGE IS GOING TO TAKE TIME…But then again, everybody knows that, right?
