You may think the president is all-powerful, but he is not. He needs a lot of guidance from the Lord.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The office of the president is the most powerful in the world. It is also, at times, the most powerless.
The great power the president has is that he is the most prominent person in the biggest media event on the planet. He has the attention of the nation and the world. When he speaks, everybody listens.
He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.
We are the only institution in our society that can question a president on a regular basis and make him accountable. Otherwise, he could be king.
I know there is a Supreme Being who rules the affairs of men and whose goodness and mercy have always followed the American people, and I know He will not turn from us now if we humbly and reverently seek His powerful aid.
Obama is a great leader. He can fire people up and get them to do what he wants.
This is easy to say with the benefit of hindsight, but I think it once again points out how very important style of leadership, that is the way he does what he does, is to his perception.
Obama is a tyrant the same way FDR was a tyrant. He has a view of presidential power that states: the government is in control of the country, and the president is in charge of the government. He's taken an imperial view of the presidency.
Most powerful is he who has himself in his own power.
It is only requisite, for me to say to you, that the President places great reliance upon your skill, judgment and intimate knowledge.
