Book Reviews of Barack Obama in His Own Words

Book Review: Revealing and Interesting
Summary: 4 Stars


Obama in His Own Words by Lisa Rogak is easy to read and very eye opening. The quotes are from speeches and are separated in categories such as The People, On Issues, On America, On Slip up's and others. I felt he spoke in a way that everyone could understand as well as being honest and believable. I was particularly surprised on the section that contained his quotes on the slip up's in his life. I felt he was being very honest and straightforward. If you are an Obama fan or one who is in the middle you will like this book. If you are not an Obama fan you will simply pick this book and him apart. If you read it with an open mind I am sure you will enjoy it. I felt he did not try to cross talk or talk in a way that was deceptive but was honest and forth coming about his beliefs.

Summary of Barack Obama in His Own Words

Since delivering his keynote speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, Barack Obama has been hailed as the clear savior of not only the Democratic party, but of the integrity of American politics. Despite the fact that he burst onto the national scene seemingly overnight, his name recognition has grown by leaps and bounds ever since.

Barack Obama in His Own Words, a book of quotes from the Illinois Senator, allows those who aren't as familiar with his politics to learn quickly where he stands on abortion, religion, AIDS, his critics, foreign policy, Iraq, the War on Terror, unemployment, gay marriage, and a host of other important issues facing America and the world.
