Professional Review:
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.

   Summary: Barack Obama in His Own Words
This book is a good mirror into the thinking of Mr. Obama. Much of what is in the book is what he says on the campaign trail, which makes him a very credible candidate for President of the United States od America.

Quotes are taken from printed and electronic media which gives one insight into his personal and political life.

I would recommend this book if one wanted to have a "hard copy" of many of his words given during his political career.


 Rating 3   Written on February 22, 2008
   Summary: Not the best source for Obama
Barack Obama In His Own Words is interesting and would be useful as a research tool for anyone writing about Obama, but it is nowhere near as interesting as his own books, all of which are insightful and fascinating.

 Rating 5   Written on January 22, 2008
   Summary: good ethics and futuristic information to be a leadership.
good book about his thoughts and gr8 book to read and to inculcate leadership skills.

   Summary: Great Book, Great Man!!!
The previous reviewers assertion that Barack Obama is a Muslim is blatantly false! It is but one of several variants of the same tired story of twisted facts whose implication is that this good and decent man, a true shining star in American politics, is somehow intent on fooling the voting (and reading) public, sneaking into the Whitehouse, once there to don a turban and wreak havoc on the whole of Christianity and the standards of American decency it alone purports loudly to define, and itself apparently responsible for sooooooo much goodness in the world at large. What amazes me about the aforementioned ridiculous "review" is not so much that it appears here in the first place, but rather that the reviewer is obviously more willing to embrace this nonsense than to spend even a few minutes checking the facts to quickly disprove it. The book is good, the man is even better, the previous conspiracy-peddling reviewer is an idiot, and symptoms abound as Christian Nationalism is alive and well in America!

   Summary: Good Insight into Obama
This is an "easy read", but very informative. I would like to see this type of publication for every candidate for public office. I finished the book in one session. I found out a lot about Obama that I did not know.
