ConspiracyTheorist, there are many of Obama's achievement but being president overshadows all of them. Coming from a poor family on American standards, he was able to attend Columus University and Harvard Law School - these being Ivy league schools where social elitism is highly practised. At Harvard, he became the first African-American president of Harvard Law Review. This man got it, we have to give him that.

Jangerboy, I do not know what you term to be achievement but this is what the dictionary says: something accomplished, esp. by superior ability, special effort, great courage, etc.; a great or heroic deed: his remarkable achievements in art. In that respect what you said about PRE. Obama already qualify him as an achiever.

Obama is the son of a Kenyan and we know beyond reasonable doubt he's extremely intelligent. This means we Kenyans have individuals as intelligent as he is. Now pray tell me why Kenya is led by a bunch of buffoons?

A society will be judged by how it treats the least fortunate amongst it's people. Obama, though he is a great man, is not Jesus. You will be judged by your actions and not you words; Yes ..I am my brother's keeper. YOU SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THE LEAST FORTUNATE AMONGST YOU. Yes..you are your brother's keeper. Judgement day is nigh...
