Its the best resume material, creating an artificial demand and actually selling something people don't want or need.
Thats the perfect resume, if you can make a go with a pile of tripe then you should breeze through making a go with a decent product.

Or if you want to look at it from another angle.
Obamas business is selling himself, he knows how to run a succesful business as he managed to claim the very top spot in his market.
He was so succesful at running a business that millions of people bought it, even millions that didnt buy it still ended up paying for the product even though they didn't want to buy it.
Millions of people will try and buy the product again, millons of other people will try and buy the product again even though they didn't like the last time they bought it, there is even a chance that millions of people may end up buying it again even though they still don't want it.

Face it Obama could have taught Steve Jobs a few things about running a business...sad isn't it.

On that, I agree. I think he started running for president to drum up publicity for his book, just like Herman Cain. It was only after the campaign gained steam that he seriously considered being President. Just my uninformed opinion, I guess.
