I am a conservative
Everyone deserves their opinion. As a conservative, I applaud this book. Expertly written. Articulate. A wonderful, moving expose' of OUR 44th President and how he got there. For all of you that have said 'garbage' just because you don't agree with his politics (I hope that is your reasoning and not something else that is very glaring these days) I say to you what we conservatives told the world in 2016: respect the office and give him a chance. Folks, lets face it: the current resident inherited a booming economy and an America where anything was possible because of President Obama and his administration. Obama/Biden inherited a disaster fr om President Bush. But all that aside, Presidents Bush and Obama and their families are respectful of one another, are friends and great together. So lets get off of this hate track. Lets turn it around and lets not 'listen or read to respond' ... rather, lets listen to hear and understand. Lets read this book with an open mind. Don't dislike it because you don't agree with his politics. But read it and understand it and think, well, that is an interesting way to grow up and that is an interesting way to see things. Having said all those things, as a conservative, it is an easy read. And gives interesting insight into something most conservatives do not experience...growing up in America as a Black man. And even though 44 was elected, we, as a people, as Americans have a very, very long way to go. Oh, and BTW, America has ALWAYS and WILL ALWAYS be great. We elected a black man twice as the most powerful man in the world. And he performed his duties with pride and dignity. Where else on this planet, outside of the African continent has that has a remote chance of happening?
