17 novembre<\/a> qui rend compte de l’interview et de ces aspects plus pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abIn his first interview since the election, Obama acknowledged the daunting nature of assuming office at a time of war and global economic crisis. The challenges that we are confronting are enormous and they are multiple. And so there are times during the course of a given day where you think: Where do I start in terms of moving moving things forward?’, the president-elect told CBS television’s 60 Minutes programme.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbHe said conversations with past presidents had persuaded him there was a certain loneliness to being in the White House. You’ll get advice, and you’ll get counsel, he said. Ultimately, you’re the person who’s going to be making decisions. And and I think that even now, you know, I … you can already feel that fact.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tL’interview rend compte \u00e9galement du choix finalement fait, apr\u00e8s toutes ces interrogations. La r\u00e9flexion de Barack Obama interrog\u00e9 rejoint alors l’\u00e9vidence de la chronologie, lorsque la crise financi\u00e8re du 15 septembre et la suite se sont impos\u00e9es \u00e0 son esprit comme constituant \u00e9videmment les priorit\u00e9s pour la nouvelle pr\u00e9sidence. Suivent alors quelques r\u00e9flexions sur les principes de ce que devrait \u00eatre son action.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bbIt became apparent, however, that the economy would remain the most pressing concern of the 64 days remaining until Obama takes office on January 20, and once he enters the White House.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbObama brushed aside comparisons between the current crisis and the Great Depression of the 1930s. He also ruled out a New Deal type solution but said he wanted to send a message to Americans that we’re going to be thinking about them and what they’re going through. For us to simply recreate what existed back in the 30s in the 21st century I think would be missing the boat, Obama said. I think the basic principle that government has a role to play in kick-starting an economy that has ground to a halt is sound. I think our basic principle that this is a free market system and that that has worked for us, that it creates innovation and risk taking I think that’s a principle that we’ve got to hold to as well.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tIl est assez int\u00e9ressant de constater combien Obama se trouve \u00e0 la fois alert\u00e9 devant l’immensit\u00e9 de la t\u00e2che qui l’attend et la difficult\u00e9 de l’affronter, ainsi que devant la perception implicite que ce sont les \u00e9v\u00e9nements qui dirigent et vont diriger son action plut\u00f4t que lui-m\u00eame qui en d\u00e9cidera. Il est effectivement int\u00e9ressant de voir un candidat s’interroger: par quoi commencer ?, et, finalement, ce m\u00eame candidat ne r\u00e9pondant pas \u00e0 sa question, mais voyant la r\u00e9ponse \u00e0 sa question impos\u00e9e par les \u00e9v\u00e9nements.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\tIl est alors int\u00e9ressant de constater que le candidat devenu pr\u00e9sident retrouve une certaine assurance, une fois qu’il rapporte que les \u00e9v\u00e9nements ont d\u00e9cid\u00e9 pour lui, pour pr\u00f4ner une action (contre la crise \u00e9conomique aux USA) typique de la situation incertaine o\u00f9 il se trouve, situation incertaine du point de vue \u00e9conomique, incertaine du point de vue politique et par rapport au syst\u00e8me. Ainsi dit-il qu’il ne fera pas comme Roosevelt en 1933 parce que 2008 n’est pas 1933, tout en admettant aussit\u00f4t qu’il faut une action comme celle de 1933 au niveau de la psychologie (\u00abto send a message to Americans that we’re going to be thinking about them and what they’re going through<\/em>\u00bb); au niveau \u00e9conomique plus pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment, il faut donc tout de m\u00eame une action comme en 1933 (intervention du gouvernement) mais il faut \u00e9galement conserver et respecter le dogme imp\u00e9ratif de 2008 (celui de l’id\u00e9ologie lib\u00e9rale et am\u00e9ricaniste qui juge comme un sacril\u00e8ge l’interventionnisme ).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tEn quelques minutes (60, pour \u00eatre pr\u00e9cis), Obama nous a donc confirm\u00e9 la sorte de difficult\u00e9s qu’il affronte et l’\u00e9tat d’esprit o\u00f9 il se trouve: la conscience de l’extraordinaire gravit\u00e9 de la situation qu’il doit affronter, la reconnaissance que les \u00e9v\u00e9nements gouvernent les choix plut\u00f4t que le contraire, la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 contradictoire o\u00f9 il se trouve de r\u00e9pondre aux attentes de ses \u00e9lecteurs et de respecter les dogmes du syst\u00e8me de l’am\u00e9ricanisme. L’interview est plus r\u00e9v\u00e9lateur de la situation pr\u00e9sente et des difficult\u00e9s pour les dirigeants de l’affronter que nombre d’analyses<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
