Clint Eastwood: Obama lacks strong leadership

Feb 10, 2010, 13:58 GMT

New York/Hamburg - Hollywood veteran Clint Eastwood has accused President Barack Obama of lacking leadership skills, in an interview with Germany's Stern magazine. 'You can win election but does that mean you can govern a country?' Eastwood said. 'Up till now he hasn't shown much strength of leadership.' The 79-year old actor and director is a member of the Republican party - but was a harsh critic of the Obama's predecessor George W. Bush. Eastwood compared Obama's first year in office to that of Nelson Mandela's in 1994. Eastwood's new film Invictus focuses on the former South African president. 'I hope he sees my film and understands the message,' Eastwood said.
