Malcolm Gladwell on Obama and "change."

I love Malcolm Gladwell. I'm not a fan of The New Yorker, but I do love Gladwell's books and was first turned onto him by this BookTV appearance promoting Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking. If you haven't read Blink, you really should.

Anyways, Gladwell was on Rachel Maddow's MSNBC show talking about Obama, "change", and why we are seeing former Clinton administration appointees as Obama's cabinet choices. Even if you don't like Maddow, you should give this a view just because of Gladwell. His explanation of the 10,000 Hour Rule is incredibly enlightening.

Vid after the jump.
