107. I really like this quote near the end:

"That people of every stripe will stand up and say, we love you Mr. President, but you don't have it right yet. And we're going to bang on your door until you get it right."

As for those people who DON'T "love" Obama (such as the author of the article in OP), no problem, because they're helping bang on his door, too.

We're under no obligation to love our leaders, our obligation as citizens in a democracy is to insist that our leaders heed us.
