A Promised Land av Barack Obama

I still remember being excited the night he was elected and I don’t particularly follow politics. It looked like the dawn of a New Age. I believe he’s the best president the states has had in generations. It was horrible how economics and the Republican strategy of being willing to lose everything in order to prevent somebody else from winning prevented Obama from making the real changes he was voted in to do.

Dreams from My Father : A Story of Race and Inheri

I may come back to this book. I truly enjoyed reading the first part, about his childhood, and I'm impressed with the writing. But I just can't drum up the enthusiasm to read about his Chigago years. Putting this on the Lost Interest shelf for now.
