Hillary fans ! I beg you - read O's book - you

[Laura PourMeADrink]

will defintely fall in love with him, promise.

[Pirate Smile]

1. Which one? The first one - Dreams from my Father?

I would guess that is the one you mean.

[Colobo]

4. It's better than The Audacity in my view.

[The_Casual_Observer]

2. Fall in love with him? Sounds incredibly creepy.

Falling in love with a politician, a public servant. Forget it.

[Tinksrival]

3. Oh come on.....

You know what she means!

[Window]

12. No so. I absolutely loved Bill Clinton.

[anonymous171]

23. Many have fell in love with Bill after his book came out.

[Diane R]

5. Get the Audio CD. A long waiting list at the library, but worth it. You'l never look back.

[BlackVelvet04]

6. Autobiographies by their very nature are self-serving....

I didn't read Hillary's and I certainly wouldn't read his.

[maddiejoan]

7. I've read both of them

Why would you think I haven't?

[PseudoIntellect]

8. The Audacity of Hope isn't much of an autobiography. I'd recommend reading that over

Dreams From My Father. The Hope book discusses a lot of issues, politics, opportunity, the roll values and faith play in the government, how liberals and conservatives are common people, etc.

[Two Americas]

9. "fall in love"

This is the problem, A certain type of support for Obama is dependent upon falling on love with him. Those that have not, for whatever reason, are just not going to. This has more to do with some personality styles or personal preferences than it does anything to do with politics, and there is a limit to how many people will fall in love with him. Those of us who have not fallen in love with him are struggling to see anything there; those who have fallen in love with him see everything there. That is why there is so much miscommunication and arguing here about him - people have either fallen in love with him or they have not, and since that is not rational, there is no way to have a rational political discussion about his candidacy.

I read the book. I'm not in love. Sorry.



The usual disclaimer - I am not a Clinton supporter, and I will work like a dog and vote for the nominee as I always have for the last 40 years.

[barack the house]

10. Yes the audio book comes across best I like the first book most.

[xchrom]

11. after donnie mcklurkin? um -- no. nt

[Window]

13. Oh, Jesus!

[MyNameGoesHere]

14. Did that no i didn't sorry. n/t

[Maribelle]

Actually, the book is full of exactly the same empty platitudes which led me to support Hillary.

[stillcool]

16. which book?

[Evergreen Emerald]

15. I read it last year.

[Freida5]

17. I read it. He is a phony

[Colobo]

21. Really? Enlighten us. How do you know? What makes him a phony?

[wrando]

bill from ct

[grantcart]

26. anybody taking odds that you get an answer?

[wrando]

27. you lose

[K Gardner]

18. Your asking Hillary fans to read something? Ewwww.

[moobu2]

19. Maybe that’s what the book was designed to do?

I don’t trust charismatic people in general, so, it wouldn’t work on me. I’d see right through every empty self serving word.

[niyad]

22. thank you, that is exactly the way I feel. some people think I am crazy,

but any charismatic person makes me run the other way. I distrust appeals to emotion rather than reason.

[wrando]

24. make not mistake

my nephew read it and he was ready to fight me over a remark I made about BO


and he's just a little nerd

bill from ct

[Secret_Society]

20. I read 'Dreams of my Father"
