OK, I know some won’t like it, but we are going for Obama’s Audacity of Hope as the first book. We will arrange for a date to get together (real or online) sometime after the 4th of July. In a hat tip to Disbelief, I will commit to have the real meeting (if it happens) below the canal, since he is always bitching about Drinking Liberally being in the north.
I do like the idea of Crashing the Gate as the second book. Who’s in?
I’m in.
I’m in. I just rediscovered reading for pleasure and I like it.
I’ve had the book for months but haven’t found time to read it. This will give me the nudge. I’m in.
Both Obama’s books are beautifully written….
I bought a second copy of “Audacity of Hope” to pass around (now I have 2 copies floating about)….it struck me as a book anyone could read & learn a ton about the man & the “process”…he is a very good teacher….
Choosing “Crashing the Gate ” is brilliant….what a great job explaining the rise of the Repubs, the differences in Dems message (lack of single sound-bite lines & WHY) & the Repub message….how the DC mentality differs so much from the rest of the country…..& how the 50 state approach is EXACTLY what will build the Dems….
I think I’ll read it again…..
I’m in.
And Crashing the Gate is fantastic — I have to find my copy which is being passed around, but it is really worth reading.
