Synopsis
Barack Obama's THE AUDACITY OF HOPE was a 2008 Grammy Award winner in the Best Spoken Word Album category.

In a few short years, Barack Obama went from being a relatively unknown freshman senator from Illinois to the successful candidate for the presidency in the 2008 election. His success is sometimes credited to his ability as a public speaker, as evidenced in his stunning keynote address at the 2004 Democratic convention. THE AUDACITY OF HOPE follows his best-selling DREAMS FROM MY FATHER, and it offers the visionary pragmatism of his speeches and the candor of his memoir. Each chapter is a developed essay, whether he is discussing partisanship in Washington, the values we have in common, or the importance of the Constitution. He also writes on the positive side of public service, the role that opportunity plays in America's economic health, the enduring dilemma of race, America's place in the world order, and last but not least, how he feels about his family. The personal side comes through in all as he tells anecdotes about the people and experiences that influenced his thought, and as he strives to connect equally to America's founding principles, its rich history, and its future, which he believes in and which he will help shape.

With a vision and a diction that struck a chord in the hearts of mainstream Democrats at the 2004 convention, Senator Barack Obama offers a platform that reconnects with traditional American values while offering a path to the future. Obama begins with a plea for an end to the toxic partisanship that characterizes business-as-usual in Washington, D.C. He appeals across party lines as he addresses issues of concern to all Americans: economic health, racial harmony, and security of the homeland. Obama advocates a nationwide consensus that reaffirms the Constitution, and a new politics based on those ideals--one that can get things done.

      A Grammy Isn't the Best Competition Obama Won in 2008!

    Very rarely are truth-telling books great reads; but, this one is.

    What's more, the junior US Senator, Barack Obama, created a Grammy-winning audio book that is truly great to listen to. Back when he did so in 2007, many believed that the author & reader would make a good Vice Presidential or Presidential candidate in 2008.

    This audio-book demostrates the charimatic, down to Earth, intellect of the recent President-Elect. It's a must own item. If you wseren't convinced that Barack Obama has what it takes to be the US President, listening to this audio-book just might change your mind.

    President-Elect Obama speaks clearly, directly & forthrightly, which in & of itself is refreshing. His personal & political insights into what American culture needs now are right on target. Pointed with the acumen of a senior US official, Obama's "Audacity" speaks necessary truths about the current state of the US & the world. I nodded in agreement with the President-Elect throughout his speaking text. He's a good writer & an every greater speaker, who shows he's more of an older wiser man than his physical appearance~
