Obama's Quiet Leadership
John Dickerson: "The president and his aides made a tactical decision to be followers on the budget deficit... If the president had led in this way, say White House advisers, his proposals would have become a target, and nothing major would have gotten done... For the last several months, while allies and critics have been calling for increased public involvement on issues from Libya to the fight over the budget, he has been sticking to his 'win the future' agenda and giving speeches about improving education, innovation, infrastructure, and energy alternatives. Settling on a plan and working it even when distractions conspire to pull you away from your path is also a quality associated with leadership."
