Barack Obama's modus operandi and modus vivendi must be at ease with the nuances, ambiguities and complexities that are the infrastructure of the political edifice that he not only will inhabit but, in many ways, construct and build. The bricks and mortar of this building must jettison the omnipotent and omniscient twins of hubris and replace them with the Promethean sparks of passion and creativity.

Reason, logic and faith can be mutually inclusive rather than mutually exclusive.
