I hardly ever get caught up with debates and politics. But with the 2008 presidential election up and coming, I’ve made it a priority of mine to be more educated. I have already picked a candidate to root for! Barack Obama. Strictly because of his Autobiography The Audacity of Hope. I’ll find more reasons later! lol
One of my favorite things about reading, especially reading an autobiography, is being able to stop and say “THAT IS SOOOO TRUE!” or “THANK YOU!!” better yet “LMAO THAT’S FUNNY!”
Just an example…
“Both times i had found the President to be a likable man, shrewd and disciplined but with the same straightforward manner that had helped him win two elections; you could easily imagine him owning the local car dealership down the street, coaching little league and grilling in his backyard – the kind of guy who would make for good company so long as the converstion revolved around sports and the kids.”
“THANK YOU!
“…most people who serve in Washington have been trained either as lawyers or as political operatives - professions that tend to place a premium on winning arguments rather than solving problems”
“THAT IS SOOOOO TRUE!”
Still haven’t found one for the last one…it is an Autobiography about a politician!
Yeah I’m tryin to be more educated too… haven’t been off to a good start haha. OH and i’m reading a biography too.. about a whore in the 1900’s named Chicago May… Our books are similar no? =)
