16. Having reread it a number of times, I believe he meant evading.

Nothing else makes sense. It could be a problem with the transcription. This confusion is not to detract from his eloquence. His comment

"And as a consequence, Barack Obama has nothing to listen to, except his detractors and those who help pave the way to his own personal comfort with power—power contained, power misdirected, power not fully engaged.

is cutting and insightful yet so diplomatic. I love that quote.
