In a recent CBS News special, President Obama told correspondent Lee Cowan that he regrets the political divide in America that has fissured ever wider under his presidency. 

Despite multiple campaign promises of being the great unifier, Obama can't help but see he hasn't delivered:

The one thing that gnaws on me is the degree of continued polarization. This has gotten worse over the last several years. And I think that in those early months, my expectation was that we could pull the parties together a little more effectively.

Cowan then asked the president, "Do you wish in hindsight that maybe campaigning on that notion of changing the tone in Washington, do you wish you hadn't campaigned as hard on that promise?"

“That’s what the American people believe, and that’s what I still believe," Obama said, jumping right back into his old ways.

Even CBS could tell Obama hasn't stopped campaigning and included a clip of his final State of the Union address in which he peddled "hope and change" one last time. Cowan's voiceover stated, "His final State of the Union seemed an attempt to remind America that despite the exasperating negativity, the last seven years have not been as dismal, or dysfunctional, or as racially divided as his critics [say]."

Never mind Ferguson, Baltimore, and all other "Black Lives Matter"-related rioting and disruption.

Earlier this month in the days leading up to his last address, President Obama told NBC's Matt Lauer that the division in the country under his presidency is a "regret," but added that at least it isn't as bad as it was during the Civil War. After that doozie, he added another, claiming that the politicians in Washington D.C. are more divided than the American people. So really, all this proves is that he is extremely out of touch with the pulse of the nation:
