As I see it, he's either a Three at levels three to five, as you have it or he is a healthy Three who has access to his missing piece, as you also have it. (As I understand it that kind of integration of the missing piece only takes place at very healthy levels.) So, that's kind of messy too. Anyway, you can't have it both ways.
Thank you, thank you. You've articulated what has been bothering me but I just couldn't put my finger on it....

7w8 istp "the tactician". He's been typed here, already. Marie thought 7w6. One of those. Definitely not 9w1. I've thought that David Axelrod might be 9w1, though. |

(Naming names: Kevin Spacey, Madonna, Tom Cruise . . .)
Very good point of distinction.
Hemmingway told F. Scott Fitzgerald that he couldn't concieve good characters (or something like that) because he didn't know anyone but himself and Zelda. Self-absorption.
(fogot I had this on my site)
Fitzgerald's weakness of showing off
"The attractive, egoistic, socially insecure boy now revealed a crucial lifelong flaw in his character which would hurt him as a writer. He had a weakness of showing off instead of listening and observing, and was unaware of the effect he had on others. "I didn't know till 15," Fitzgerald said, "that there was anyone in the world except me, and it cost me plenty." Two of his closest friends later criticized the narcissistic self-absorption that limited Fitzgerald's understanding of other men and women (Meyers, 1994, 10)."
Here's the rest of the quote of Meyers:
"Sara Murphy wrote, with some exaggeration: "I have always told you you haven't the faintest idea what anybody else but yourself is like." And Hemingway, who agreed with her, told their editor Max Perkins: "Scott can't invent true characters because he doesn't know anything about people" (Meyers, F. Scott Fitzgerald, 1994, pg. 10). |

So, you see similarities between David Plouffe and Naomi Campbell?

I see Jack Nicholson as a sx/soc Seven with Eight. Harvey Milk also - another sx/soc. Real flamboyant, expansive, lots of fun. Rahm seems like a soc/sx Seven with Eight. (None of them remind me of Palin - one of the reasons I doubt the EI's typing of her as a Sx Seven with Eight. She's not that flamboyant or fun; she does want to expand her little fiefdom though. Takes herself real seriously.)
Plouffe is a bit harder...but he seems like a double head type to me...I could see Seven with Six or Six with Seven.
Axelrod seems like an uber-Nine to me. It might as well be written on his forehead it's so obvious. In my always humble opinion. |

Plouffe is "innocent". He's a "nice young man". This points away from 7.
Axelrod is cagey and 'strategic' by nature. Not a 9.

BTW, Nicholson is sp/sx. 'Social' is not a comfort zone for him.

I like Jack...but he is a complete vulgarian and very expansive. Absolutely not sp first.
I think we are working with different systems actually. So really there's no point. |

Btw, I think Caroline Kennedy is a member of your tribe. I think she would have been a good Senator also. She just couldn't handle the invasion of her privacy and the disrespect.
I think that Caroline Kennedy and Obama's mother share a similar temperament and the same type: 9w1. I also see a physical resemblance. Obama, his mother, and his maternal grandfather are all 9w1. |

sp/sx = sensual indulgence and a festering belligerence.
The extroversion in his personality type has you seeing 'soc' in the stack. He's actually shy and awkward in social settings. A Seven with a middle soc is the definition of 'gregariousness'.
Sp/sx adds 'dark' to one's picture.
At a party, will he pull one woman into a corner for a hushed intimate conversation, or stand in the middle and regale the crowd with his stories?

Ann Dunham - Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Dunham
"In an interview, Obama referred to his mother as "the dominant figure in my formative years... The values she taught me continue to be my touchstone when it comes to how I go about the world of politics."[3]" |

| That's one of the reason why I type Jack 7w6 not 7w8. He's kind of dumpy. |
