About this listen

When David Garrow – Pulitzer Prize winning author of the Martin Luther King Jr. biography Bearing the Cross – first saw Barack Obama on television making his keynote address at the 2004 Democratic Convention, he was intrigued. He immediately read Obama’s book Dream’s From My Father and felt that the book read more like a novel than a piece of history. Garrow eventually went on a nine year journey to deconstruct the mythology that surrounded Obama, and this journey resulted in the book Rising Star, a 1,460 page exegesis into Obama’s pre-presidential years.

What we cover –

  • What will the historical perception of the Obama presidency look like?
  • Why does Obama take so many “shots” at President Joe Biden?
  • What is Obama’s view on Israel and its current war with Hamas?
  • What do Obama’s prior romantic relationships show about Obama?
