Would be a better title from his polygamist alcoholic father who abanonded everyone in his family. Read closely and you will see the roots of the radical rage that we will all inherit from this corrupt loser...the father and the son...if he is ever elected. I dare you to delve into his past and believe he is a good man. Chicago anyone?

America is desperate for change. I fear how far the country will continue to spiral downward without it. Collectively, let us bless this man (and his family) with our thoughts, prayers and good intentions.


5 out of 5 stars Very easy to read   August 13, 2008
I just finished this book and it was one of the better books I have read recently. It was very easy to read. Obama was very candid and I was impressed at how open and real he was in this book.... I feel like I know Barack Obama better now.


1 out of 5 stars This man is a racist!   August 12, 2008
 6 out of 10 found this review helpful

I think anybody who is thinking about voting for this man needs to read this book. Obama comes across as an angry black man who is extremely prejudice against whites. I can't figure out how so many people like him, he is truly a racist and to see so, all you have to do is read this book!

Is this an autobiography? What is the point of this book? What about the majority of Obama's life and relationships? I see no real mention of his mother and maternal sister as he became a adult.
