The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream (Vintage)
The Audacity of Hope is Barack Obama's call for a new kind of politics—a politics that builds upon those shared understandings that pull us together as Americans. Lucid in his vision of America's place in the world, refreshingly candid about his family life and his time in the Senate, Obama here sets out his political convictions and inspires us to trust in the dogged optimism that has long defined us and that is our best hope going forward.

President Barack Obama
rating: 5
It was after reading this book that I realized that I had to do everything within my power to ensure that Barack Obama was elected President of the United States.
There are two kinds of people in the world - those who know how to dream, and those who donot. For those of us who do, this book was a set of important guidelines on what this country could be. It took dreamers to create this great society, and it will take a dreamer and a man of action to get us out of the quagmire we're in today.
It was a long shot, but just like millions of other Americans, I knew that if the rest of the country got to know Barack Obama the way I'd taken the time to do, they would elect him president, and they did. If you don't support your newly elected president, that's okay. This country is great because we have the freedom to disagree, even with our most important leaders. But if you love this country at all, then you have to know that there's a movement afoot, one that will take us into a shining new future, one that involves all Americans taking control of their own civic lives, and working together across racial and political lines to do what's best for the country.
Anyone that doesn't want to be a part of that? Pretty sad.

The Audacity of Hope - Obama
rating: 1
This book was full of lies. The only hope of change he will bring to this country is to bring it to fall. God better step in and help this country because we are doomed to a life of hell. Bush made his mistakes, but because the economy is so bad (not Bush's fault if you look at history) Obama will just give give give to the ones that don't pay taxes and take take take from those who do, regardless if you are middle class or rich.
