we had a President who did very little 'chewing the cud'. He made instinctive decisions based on his "gut". This was seen as 'decisive' by some and 'rash' to others.
In the lexicon of the great American philosopher (Ralph Waldo Emerson) the natural order is dictated by the law of "compensation".
True to this compensatory law we now have a President who appears to govern by committee. This trait is admirable on many levels but it also robs some presidential thunder. We elect presidents to lead and show decisiveness.
It seems to me that we have come full circle...we had a president who would shoot from the hip and now we have one who "sits on the pot".
