He spoke well and was somewhat charming publicly, as I recall. So, in comparison to Trump, he wasn't as divisive or offensive on the campaign trail for his 1st election. The 2nd election, well that was because Reps ran Romney. Equivalent to the Dems running Kerry against Bush.Well, Obama got elected. Twice. What had he accomplished besides being a community pest and a newly elected jr senator with little credibility?
On edit: 8 years of Bush/Cheney hurt McCain's chances too. Not to mention Palin...
The one thing Obama/Trump have in common; they were both the anti-establishment choice.
