Book - Barack Obama Audacity of Hope

[Templarian]

I'm only on chapter 2, but this is a very good book so far. It very in depth describes what he stands for and does it in a story throughout his political life. He uses metaphores, but in a way that one can relate. He describes his meeting so president bush (as you know Obama supports bush in many things) and does it in a way that shows bush as a very skilled leader with an open mind, but with duties.

I plan to finish it during this week and I'll edit his when I'm done with it.

I'm actually listening the the audio book to relax now that i'm done with midterms and classes and I can stat to enjoy spring break

metaphores
:m2: Sorry, just had to point that out. But seriously, I might read this now that you've pointed it out. If only to be in the cool, "Ooohhh, I read [Insert Book Title]!"-Club

.... what? Don't want to turn this into a political discussion, but on just about every Bush policy position, Obama stands for the opposite.

As far as the book goes, I enjoyed it.

Yes don't turn it into a political discussion or the thread will be closed. Feel free to discuss the book itself however.

I haven't read the book yet....but maybe he says this because he wrote this long ago and his views changed? Although, if that is true....heh

Does the book say why he changed his name? Was it to make it sound cooler or to make it sound more blacker?
