However, I am always very careful in my thoughts about other nations politics and motives. It's hard to judge when you don't live in that country. Still, the US is too important not to have a real, serious interest in. And well, Obama, whatever you wanna say about him - the simnple fact that he was elected changed the world. And he will continue changing the world - I just don't know if he'll succeed in changing it the way he wants.

Anyway, this book, written before he was elected as Potus, gives an interesting insight into his political views on all kinds of subjects. What makes it interesting isn't really the content or his opinions - it's the way he describes where his opinions come from, what influenced him, what made him change his POV sometimes. ]]>
