Obama the classic liberal?

Classic liberal meaning free market, antiwar, and Thomas Jefferson-like. I don’t believe Obama really is, seeing he is a pro-welfare socialist more or less, but this article is funny. (Thanks to Jeffrey Tucker)

While Obama, despite his University of Chicago connections, is no Friedrich Hayek, he is closer to the Austrian economist’s classic notion of “liberal” – i.e. favoring market forces over government fiat – than his Democratic rival.
