"Obama is all he's cracked up to be. I just think he could be a tad more tactful in 'negotiations'..."

Don't mean this as a criticism of Obama, but since when has this guy been a diplomat? If he is skilled in diplomacy, where did he get the training?

He has a background in law school followed by a stint as Chicago political boss, followed by two years as a Senator. Not one thing in that resume that requires diplomacy or executive ability.
