What part of people is resistant to an artist doing more than one thing? Is it somehow perceived as greedy? Anyone who has that weird volition to become an actor probably has a weird volition to do lots of other creative things - to write, to play music, to paint, to cook. ↗

That is who Barack Obama is - a person of admirable character - and that is who he has remained for me over these last four years.
