Not that I even disagree with his observations, but it doesn’t make sense to ask Tad Devine about what progressives think. He’s just a bizarre choice.

Tad Devine? Really? If you want to go old school, you might as well ask Bill Moyers. At least people, young and old, know who Bill is. I wonder what grift Devine is up to these days.
Who “IS” Obama?
He tries to answer in terms of his ideology. A person and his ideology are not exactly the same thing.
Obama’s “ideology” is a belief in competent government.
Not much more than that IMO
Except when it comes to the banksters.
