Hey, who knows? Maybe Obama becomes a great 2 term President. Maybe not. But for right now, in the shower of 1 year reviews, dream a little and write back:
What would Barack H. Obama be good at if he was not our Commander In Chief?
Your turn, have fun.

My first choice was used car salesman. That was already mentioned. My second was a motivational speaker, a la Tony Robbins. Also mentioned. However, there are great opportunities in other areas:
* Start-yer-own-religion Cult Leader
* Television infomercial host
* Television Talk Show Host
* Fox News Contributor (fair and balanced)

He'd be a great narrator. He has a beautiful speaking voice.

Wow. America's Presidency gives such great context to this question.
Can you imagine just how much difference that simple word makes in that question?
Try asking it another way: "What could the most useless Senator in the history of the United States do if he wasn't a Senator?"
lol ... Work the drive-thru at McDonald's?
But once you throw "President" in there, whether good or bad (in Obama's case it remains to be seen), the job opportunities really go up! We view the guy is a much brighter light.
Like above me, I think he'd make a good Wright-like preacher.
He'd be good at his old job: funneling money through activism that never reaches its intended targets, yet the activist's living situation improves drastically.
Car salesman.

"What could the most useless Senator in the history of the United States do if he wasn't a Senator?"
Well, let's see...Elizabeth Dole hasn't done anything since she accused Kay Hagan the Sunday School teacher of being an atheist (and losing by the widest margin in North Carolina in 30 years), so the answer is simple: If the most useless Senator in the history of the United States isn't a Senator, she goes back to Kansas with her husband and goes into hiding.

I say a myLot moderator and since many here like to accuse him of having aspirations of being a dictator he could change some of the guidelines and delete posts by English speaking, American members with atrocious grammar, spelling and sentence structure! Not to mention playing VERY fast and loose with the facts...lol!

I think he should go back to teaching Constitutional Law. He seems to know a lot about circumventing it. Besides most professors are liberals and he certainly has that down pat.

Oh,this one's too easy.Obama would make a great used car salesman.Anyone who can convince a bunch of people to elect him the countries highest office could surly sell a 1989 Honda to some idiot off the street.
