Two statements explain the huge failure of Obamacare. One is by President Barack Obama, the other is about him.
The first was made in St. Paul, Minnesota, at the end of the 2008 primary campaign, when candidate Obama predicted that generations would look back and see his nomination as the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.
Couple this with the assessment of his closest aide, Valerie Jarrett, about his exceptionalism. He knows exactly how smart he is, she told Obama biographer David Remnick. And he knows that he has the ability -- the extraordinary, uncanny ability -- to take a thousand different perspectives, digest them and make sense out of them.
Obama has never really been challenged intellectually, she went on. Hes been bored to death his whole life. Hes just too talented to do what ordinary people do.
Or what an ordinary president does, for that matter. A chief executive less bored than Obama would have stayed on top of his signature legislation. Those upset that he didnt are bedwetters, the White House says, nervous Nellies who cant comprehend the larger picture of health-care reform that will, in due time, emerge. White House spokesman Jay Carney intones the mantra that the president is focused on delivering the access to quality and affordable health insurance and isnt concerned about the politics of that.

Is Obamacare Challenging Enough for Obama? - Bloomberg
It took a while, but people are starting to see what quite a few of us [racists] saw years ago.
