Barack Obama Interview by the Boston Globe in 1990...a Retrospective
the Boston Globe published a 19 year old article today which was an interview with a 28 year old Barack Obama as he was elected as the president of the Harvard Law Review. Very interesting article and quite a bit of foreshadowing.

1. What a great article
Obama has extraordinary qualities. It sounds like the person he was then is the person he is now.

Wasn't today a great day?

I've waited such a long time to have a real Democrat in the White House.

I define a "Real Democrat" as a president who never had to compromise to the right wing to get elected to anything.

FDR, Truman, Kennedy and Obama
