Editorial Reviews

Review

Barack Obama is currently a very important figure on the American political landscape as he seeks the Democratic nomination for President in the forthcoming 2008 election. His multiracial heritage, his gift of oratory, and his novelty to the American media have made him a household name in just a very few short years. Now for those who wish to know more about this remarkable politician who currently serves as the junior senator from Illinois in the federal congress, "Barack Obama: Speeches 2002-2006" is available to the reading public. Compiled and co-edited by Maureen Harrison & Steve Gilbert, this compendium of Obama's public speeches in a variety of settings and before diverse audiences will provide an informed and informative resource for Obama's statements and positions on global warming, the Iraq war, the Walter Reed Hospital scandal, and other critically important social and political issues of our time. Everyone, regardless of their party affiliation, who has an interest in the outcome of the 2008 presidential elections needs to give a careful reading to what Obama has had to say and the positions he has taken in "Barack Obama: Speeches 2002-2006". --MidwestBookReview.com (May 2007)


Product Description

Read the inspirational words of this promising Presidential candidate, and see what he envisions for the future of America. From his anti-Iraq War speech of 2002 through his 2006 World AIDS Day speech, all nineteen speeches in this book have as their common message the politics of hope.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trying to offset......, March 12, 2008
I haven't purchased this item, but since I doubt the only other reviewer (at this time) did either, I'd like to give potential buyers a chance. Usually if I see an item with only 1 star, I disregard it and move on. So...trying to give this item a chance since the only other review is by a person who has given a bad (1 star) review to every other item on amazon that has anything to do with Barack Obama.
Cheers!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great speeches, June 8, 2008
By Taku Suzuki (Columbus, OH) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great book of speeches. He states his stand on many issues, from calling the War on Iraq "dumb" and "rash" to talking about the importance of honesty in government in a speech in Kenya. However, he clearly is speaking to an academic audience. He has a degree from Harvard, so some may have trouble decifering all the big words he is using. Originally I bought this book for my teenager who is really into Obama, but found that he couldn't really understand the text. He had a much easier time understanding Obama's other books: Audacity of Hope and Dreams From my Father. Personally, I liked all three. I hadn't know much about Obama, so it was very interesting to learn where he stood on issues.
