Senator Obama calls for a different brand of politics--a politics for those weary
of bitter partisanship and alienated by the "endless clash of armies" we see in Congress
and on the campaign trail; a politics rooted in the faith, inclusiveness, and nobility
of spirit at the heart of our democracy. He explores those forces--from the fear of
losing, to the perpetual need to raise money, to the power of the media--that can
stifle even the best-intentioned politician. He examines the growing economic insecurity
of American families, the racial and religious tensions within the body politic, and
the transnational threats--from terrorism to pandemic--that gather beyond our shores.
And he grapples with the role that faith plays in a democracy. Only by returning to
the principles that gave birth to our Constitution, he says, can Americans repair
a broken political process, and restore to working order a government dangerously
out of touch with millions of ordinary Americans.--From publisher description
