Prophets of the Marginal Revolution, a continuing series

Guest blogger Fabio Rojas on Barack Obama, circa 2004.  I remember reading that post and thinking: "Fabio is a great guest blogger, but who cares about that guy?"

maybe if you can collate info on how much adsense (or whichever advertising tool you use) pays you every month, and maybe plot a time series, you can have a post titled “PROFITS of the Marginal Revolution, a continuing series”

Obama reminds me of Tiger Woods.

But before he had won anything but one uncontested amateur title?

“But before he had won anything but one uncontested amateur title?”

Yes, exactly. When Tiger was 16, Jack Nickolaus and Arnold Palmer claimed Tiger would win the most major championships (and that will be true).

Likewise, there’s something inevitable about Obama’s rise (to borrow a previous Clinton memo point).

Both Tiger and Obama are, to some degree, criticized by the African American community as “not being black enough” (of course, I find this as crude and ultimately ugly).

You didn’t exactly need to be clairvoyant to see Obama’s rise. The DNC wanted him to do well. See him front and cenetr at 2004 DNC convention. He’s young, handome, personable, a good speaker, AND Black. I was with Fabio on this in 04. Not sure why you weren’t.
