President Obama had his first cabinet meeting of 2014, and Ambassador Samantha Power gave us a glimpse into the orator-in-chief and his cute little fortune cookie wisdom, undoubtedly inspired by “High School Musical” or maybe “Camp Rock.” Given the response from Twitter, it might have been better if she had kept this cheesy little leadership seminar to herself:

@AmbassadorPower @ron_fournier quite frankly this is very sophomoric, but typical.
