Commentary

I agree with my classmate's blog http://seungchoi.blogspot.com/2009/07/being-involved-too-much.html . Even though I do not condone President Obama's statement that the police "acted stupidly", I do believe that he does need to realize his position as President of the United States. Everything that President Obama does will be scrutinized, especially by the media. The arrest of Henry Gates Jr. obviously was clearly an instance in which media would turn nothing into something. I also believe that Obama may be getting involved in issues that should be otherwise left alone and do not require presidential intercession.
