What Americans Expect from Obama

President Obama should hire himself an expectations czar and immediately elevate the person to a Cabinet-level position. Forget all the talk about a secretary of culture. What the country really needs is a secretary of high expectations, a person who goes to work every day with the singular purpose of preserving the president's high approval and job-performance numbers and vigilantly guards against their natural erosion. Why? Because, right now, confidence in Barack Obama is all that is standing between us and a complete collapse into economic and emotional depression.
