Ed Lasky "Americans don't care much for royalty; remember our Revolution. We don't like when the President bows before the Saudi King or the Emperor of Japan, but treats democratically elected allies, such as the Prime Minister of Great Britain or the leader of Israel, as lepers. They don't like domestic royalty either and perceive the couple in the White House as increasingly people who see themselves as our King and Queen. "....
"Barack Obama's excessive use of the first person singular is a mite different than the royal we, but the narcissism that animates its use is the same."
Count Obama's uses of the words, "I", "my" and "mine" in his next public discourse.
