Personally I want a President who is not afraid to change his/her position when situations change or there is new information.

Yeah, except conditions haven't changed in any significant manner between his last days of primary season. Definitely not even slightly enough to warrant total and dramatic reversals of point of view to the extent he shows now and the audience he is on display in front of. I also like a President who can revise policy positions as well due to changing circumstances. But that is not what Obama is displaying here. And it's totally apparent to any observer with even the shortest of memories.
