Is this an existential Presidency?

I seek to make the point that the current presidency is an existential one.

First, I'll remind you the previous presidency of George William Bush was called the post-modern presidency.

This is because President Bush seemed to question basic tenets of reality; one contradiction that springs to mind is the "Compassionate Conservative" stuff; another thing that comes to mind is the seeming devaluation of science that riled so many liberals up.

The Presidency of Bill Clinton was also called the postmodern Presidency because of President Clinton's famous declaration that it depends on what the definition of is is.

Now for the Goods:

Obama's presidency has seen a marked movement from the Iraq War to the healthcare debate.

It seems to me there is a new scandal every day, which is typical of the nature of the media and the public at large.

But I think that Obama is running the media more than he is running from it. I think he is deftly changing the media; this is why it seems like he is over-saturated. He is changing the rhetoric by making himself the rhetoric. By changing the rhetoric he initiates, Americans have given their full attention to the healthcare debate.

We are all creating the reality that we are in.

Even me, as I write about Obama making his own reality....(?)
