Download The Stranger: Barack Obama in the White House AudioBook Free
A nuanced, behind-the-scenes, and analytical narrative of President Obama's White House tenure, by NBC's award-winning Key White House Correspondent. Barack Obama received the presidency in 2008 partially because he was a Washington outsider. But when he got to 1600 Pa Avenue, that distinction turned out to be double-edged. While he'd been an excellent advertising campaign politician, working inside the system as president turned out to be much more of an obstacle than Obama experienced ever imagined. In The Stranger, NBC Key White House Correspondent Chuck Todd attracts upon his unprecedented inner-circle resources to create a gripping profile of Obama's tumultuous White House years. In doing so, not only does indeed Todd give us the most revealing family portrait yet of this fascinating chief executive and his challenges, but illuminates what "Obamism" is really, what the chief executive stands for, and how his decisions have evolved - and can change - American politics for decades.
