As you obviously didn't bother to read and think about the whole of what Obama actually said about this, I don't see the point in your... nonsense.
Obama came out of this with flying colors, not because of his rhetorical skills, but because he had the courage to face the critisism head on and was able to formulate a cohesive and sensible answer to what was an obvious attempt at entrapment. It was supposed to be "damned if you do, damned if you don't", but Obama refused to accept that logic, that twisted idea of everyday politics that seemed to have taken a deathgrip on the chance of ever dealing with these issues.
I think this whole thing has only helped to prove that Obama is ready for presidency. He can take the right course of action, even when it's not one of the obvious ones, and he can explain his decisions in a way which can not only be understood but also accepted by those around him.
He is not ready to lead, he is a leader already. He doesn't even need the authority of presidency to do that.
