so does a potential supreme court nominee get this same questionnaire? The only intrest he could possibly have in the 2nd amendment would be to limit it or dump it all together.

I dont care about his curiosity, this is illegal to ask on a job application, and this IS a job application.

So he is implying that he can do it, but no one else can.

I agree, but we are talking about a politician that is up for re-election in 4 years, not a leader. What do you think weighs heavier on his mind? Doing what is right for the country, diung what is right for the party, or getting re-elected? My vote goes to getting re-elected above all else. This is an ego driven man (like 90% of other politicans that run for president) and his legacy will be severely damaged if he cannot win a second term. He will always be the first black president, but without re-election he will be seen as a failure.

I dont agree at all. Look at the wording on a few of those questions. They specificly mention looking bad for Obama. I would say that he is very worried about making sure he looks good.
