Further to my posts here and here about the resemblance of Barack Obama to previous Presidents, here is commentary by four US historians about Obama’s first 100 days. They cite, variously, his similarities to Lincoln, FDR, JFK, LBJ and Reagan. I still think he is closer to TR than to anyone else, in terms of policies, in terms of personal character, and in his use of the bully pulpit.
