I think the word "ever" denotes too much absolution. Sure, never say never (arrgh! Beiber); Obama definitely isn't a hacker in software, but he definitely hacked the ways presidential campaign are done for a long time. Now that I think about it, most elected officials ARE Hacker in some way as they have: 1) build a product (their image) 2) build a product (themselves) 3) deal with competitors 4) innovate with new messages 5) change the ways certain things are done etc. Also, might be elected, but probably never "electerd" :)
