With the disaster that is Obama 's presidency, I think this is a legitimate question. He certainly has some of the characteristics. 1. He feels that he is above the law(I have a phone and a pen) 2. He has a "Messianic" vision of himself and his "mission." 3. He sublimates aggression and holds grudges. 4. He misrepresents the truth( lies) to suit his agenda. 5. He ignores facts that conflict with his fantasy world or his narcissistic view of himself. 6. He behaves like an adolescent(Peter Pan syndrome) through his choice of language,blaming everyone but himself when things go wrong, feeling entitled to special treatment even though he's lousy and projecting a youthful image. 7. He displays false modesty and "folksiness" but can't sustain it for long. The true Obama does come out as arrogant, aloof and disdainful of the "simple" folk.
I don't know if he holds grudges, but the rest looks spot on. I can understand a bit as to why he thinks this way. After all, the media portrayed him as a savior and a person who was bigger than life when he was first campaigning for office. He won the Nobel Prize for Peace, just for being alive. He was treated as a messiah and he got caught up in it and has not recovered.
so-ci-o-path noun Psychiatry. a person with a psychopathic personality whose behavior is antisocial, often criminal, and who lacks a sense of moral responsibility or social conscience. He certainly fits the mold.
Thanks for the laugh! I especially liked the one about his Peter Pan syndrome (apparently, Obama has several mental illnesses going on). I wonder why the right has to get so personal in their attacks.
I strongly suspect that Obama's obtuse position on the border crisis and Holder's parade float investigation are part of a campaign to take revenge upon the majority of America that wouldn't accept Obama's extreme policy prescriptions. Obama has basically been a lame duck from the beginning, ever since he tried to get single payer and failed. He must be incredibly bitter and vindictive against the clingers by now. We know the fiberals on our own forum are
Can your assessment of the POTUS be any more in sync with Roger AIles Faux News talking points? I think not. It's interesting that no Fox or Limbaugh listener ever takes the law of averages into consideration. Have any of these entities EVER approved of ANYTHING the POTUS has done? To make it more realistic, they should have at least praised him for one of his policies. The consistent and relentless bashing and criticism is, if nothing else, against the law of averages. In response to your question...No, Obama does not display the characteristics of a sociopath. If you want to conduct a personality disorder study, you need not look further than people such as Paul Ryan and the rest of the right wing faction that touts and attempts to put into legislation the teachings of the notorious sociopath Ayn Rand.
