Opis

This book detailed Obama's valedictory speech in his hometown of Chicago and, it was a public meditation on the trials and triumphs, promises kept and promises broken that made up his eight years in the White House. Arguing his faith in America had been confirmed, Obama said he ends his tenure inspired by America's "boundless capacity" for reinvention, and he declared: "The future should be ours." Conceding disappointments during his presidency yet offered vigorous encouragement for the nation's future. His delivery was forceful for most of his speech, but by the end he was wiping away tears as the crowd embraced him one last time.
