TRUE: Obama is not a scientist. JAMA shouldn’t pretend he is. “In a sense, it’s cool that President Obama cares enough about science to want to publish a paper in one of the world’s leading medical journals. But JAMA has set a bad precedent. The article, on healthcare reform in the United States, is problematic not only in its content but in the threat it poses to the integrity of scientific publishing.”

Pretty much everything Obama touches suffers a loss of integrity.
