    The book was a colorful fun look at the life of Sen.Barack Obama.Starting at his birth to his historic win against Hillary Clinton.The book also mentions Rev.Wright,the fist bump and Bill Clinton's comments.I suggest buying this book because even though our economy is jacked up you can manage to pay for this three-dollar book right(I hope so!).John McCain's book is pretty good to.It may not be the most exciting but hey it might get some of those teenagers to regester (probably not but I wish).And oh in 2009 when your reflecting on the race you can compare what is to what could have been.Oh and if you live in a place like,I don't know,Nebraska don't be suprised if there's one McCain left!



    Who likes fluff?

    Did you watch the Presidential candidates biographies on television the other week? Did you see the one on Obama? If you did, you won't get anything new out of this comic. Check out that awesome cover by Jeff Scott Campbell? Do you like it? I think it's rad. Don't worry because inside is the most boring artwork you'll see. I was really excited for this book, mainly because nothing like this has ever been done before. I also read the McCain book, same thing though. It all really is just fluff. I do recommend it if you know nothing about the candidates though.

    Get off your butts and vote. I don't care who it's for, just do it.
    Don't vote? Then you have no right to complain.... Unless you're underage....
