Barack Obama is considered to be a sensible politician. Of course, he has the advantage of being compared with other American politicians. Obama has now proved that nothing prevents a sensible person from making inappropriate comments.
Obama has, in his autobiography, referred to Rahul Gandhi as someone who is unformed, nervous and lacking in passion and aptitude. These are all subjective remarks which do not do justice to Obama's sensibility.
Everyone is unformed in the sense that everyone keeps evolving. If Obama considers himself as 'formed', it means he refuses to grow further. No one can claim that one has reached the zenith of growth. When meeting Obama, Rahul would have been overwhelmed by protocol requirements causing him to be nervous. Probably, Obama lacked the ability to put Rahul at ease. Passion and aptitude cannot be measured easily even by experts. One wonders why Obama has chosen to be so pretentious.
The Congress party has matched Obama in lack of maturity. "These are only Obama's views." Obama says these are his views.
