- Summary
- "This biography of President Barack Obama argues that while the forty-fourth president has often been regarded by journalists and other political observers as a progressive and pragmatist, he was also an economic and social conservative. He believed in free enterprise, self-help, and a vibrant middle class. He sought to open up avenues of opportunity to enter the middle class for those who, for various reasons, including the color of their skin or their place of birth, were not part of it."--
