In what ways was Obama "quick to cash in," and how does doing so (assuming the options he took are legal) impact an assessment of his kindness and character?

- starkd 4y agoSo, you think those enormous speaking fees are because of his "kindness and character" ? Sure, they are legal. But let's not pretend they were for anything other than what he did for them while in office and the influence he currently carries to influence government policies. This is why, at one time, it was considered sacrilege to do so. I think Carter and Reagan (and maybe Bush Sr.) were the last presidents to observe this rule.
