There has been a lot of talk lately about how President Obama seems to have lost his “cool factor,” which helped him secure a primary win and eventual White House victory in the last presidential cycle.

In this high-tech modern day culture of ours, a sort of geeky intellectualism is very much in vogue. This is in stark contrast to the past when cerebral Democratic presidential nominee Adlai Stevenson ran in the 1950s.
