Like a
Successories catalog made flesh, writes Greg Beato, Barack Obama's
presidential campaign invoked burning beacons, long roads, steep
climbs, and new dawns. He was lofty, he was declamatory, he was as
aesthetically challenging as a majestic golf course on a crisp
autumn morning. And yet his well-worn rhetoric managed to move
multitudes. Could it be that all those corny corporate psalms to
Character and Service have touched us more deeply than we
realized?
