★★☆☆☆
This book had potential
But the author made it more into the typical partisan case against myself and other liberals. And in doing so, took away a prime opportunity to aid the country in it's oh-so obvious hour of need. Ironically I also am concerned about the issues which Obama presidency poses to the nation. This is to say nothing of either the Constitution or the world. Lackluster debate exchanges and a dizzying array of policy flip-flops have gone selectively ignored and/or remain downplayed by the media. When we consider this still is the 24-hour information age, there is an apparent disconnect, or some very powerful media favoritism occurring. Everything which this guy does apparently comes across as the greatest thing ever invented. It's almost as if he's bought off the media just to write positive stories about him. The pay off has occurred in order to compensate for having little experience prior to running for President. How else to explain why critical scrutiny of this candidate habitually gets overlooked? Having more information sources for a society's public display does not always translate into that society having a better news media or a more aware public. Meanwhile, the media DOES make sure we do have glowing puff pieces about what kind of television shows he loves to watch or how much fun he is having on his latest vacation!
