Promise V/s Performance

I agree with Michael D. Shear (The Hindu, November 9, 2016) that Obama's agenda remains incomplete. Look at his speech eight years ago in Chicago's Grant Park declaring "a new dawn" in U.S. history and promising the enthusiastic crowd of a quarter-million people that "we as a people will get there". It is easier said and claimed for performance than done in practice. Obama is no exception and Trump too will no doubt follow suit very soon.

All over the globe the leaders who capture power had awe-inspiring dreams but realised soon after capturing power that they had not done their home work sincerely or bluffed before the electorate knowingly.
