Powerline's superb blogger, Steven Hayward, raised the prospect that events in Chicago, Libya and Egypt could very well be a "black swan event" for Barack Obama. The term was new to OTR, and, based on some quick research, he found it most interesting and worthy of sharing with his readers. Regardless of political persuasions or other attitudes, opinions, or beliefs, you can learn more about this two thousand year-old concept here, here and here.  OTR guarantees it's a whole lot more than your expected. Enjoy.
