Begins when Obama went to Chicago and became an organizer, this man has an intense drive to succeed. The documentaries that I have seen shows a man with a great determination to achieve his goals, failure is not ian option for him. In spite of being young, he had the common sense to learn and be instructed by the best. He has a lot of confidence in himself, and a lot of hope and faith in his christian belief. This mind set to dare to hope, even against the odds is what gave him (his advisors, and his wife) the ability to stand firm in opposition and adversity. Persistence is a strong characteristic that he thrives on, so much so, that he was able to engage people who would not normally find themselves caught up on the words of a Black man. Plus someone, somewhere in his lifetime has taught him the principle of there is a time to speak and a time to be quiet, and he did this well during the election. A lot of mud slinging was going on, but rarely did he retaliate. From video's that I have seen of Obama during the election, were of people of all ages, nationalities, even outside of the American jurisdiction were individuals clinging to his articulate word of promise and change. The nit-picking got to be old hat, the people was tired of that. A man born to a White mother and a Nigerian father, and later raised by his maternal grandparents. They instilled a core of values in him, and from his immediate family (which is like the rainbow coalition) gave him the ability and know how to get along with people from all racial backgrounds. Not to mention that in America we are down to "two" classes of people, Rich and Poor, the "middle" class because of the economy is slowly falling to the wayside. So people from all walks of life, even in "lily White" communities and States found themselves chanting "Yes We Can," and the end results of the election was "Yes We Did." That's how I see it.
