Just to add to your comments on Obama's marketing brilliance, I want to focus on your last sentence. After Obama's speech ... and after letting the lump in my throat rest for a moment ... I leaned over to my wife and said, "look at the hope he has created at a time where it seems all hope is lost." As I have said before in another of your posts, brand is everything. It is nice to believe in a Presdient who has created a brand that is so tightly connected to our emotions and passion. He built a team that is just SMART ... And clearly a team that is willing to work hard for what they believe in. I was impressed with David Axelrod just moments after the election, when he (and the others in the inner circle) sat down for a 60 minutes interview, and he said very plainly ... "I believe in Barack." Clearly you are not alone Mr. Axelrod. Your post alone describes what I look for in a leader ... discipline, consistency, embracing change for good, and passion. Thanks again for allowing us to read and write with purpose ...
