Title: the voice of our next president?
Product review: Barack Obama has written an accessible autobiography and political manifesto. He has taken care to organize it so as to present his political argument on the eve of his run for president. That is the main problem with the book: its main purpose is to support his political campaign. As a result, we get neither a satisfying presentation of his life story nor his political argument, but a little of both.Perpahs that is the best way to make a book like this widely accessible. His prodigious intellect (president of the Harvard Law Review), humor and abiding humanity are palpable. Still, Obama's dual purposes in authorship dilute both his narrative and his argument.I voted for him anyway.
