Midknight Review -- new and revised: Expose I : Don't have time to write, but you will find this story most revealing: "Obama, the Composite Man coming unraveled."

In this article , we have a Barack Obama who decides to be black, maintained a passive presence in early political controversies, spoke in grandiose but vague terms, all in an effort at self definition. While appearing to be a crusader against big oil, he has received more money from BP (remember the Gulf oil spill?) than an politician in history - and that fact seems to be a representation of Obama, "the conflicted man."

The article recommended in this post has a good amount of detail and, after years of listening to this man, Barack Obama, we are beginning to get to know who he is.

Read: Our Composite President

The impetus for this article is a new book coming out. It deals with the theme: "Becoming Obama."

Here is the write-up for that book, to be releases within weeks:

BUY THE BOOK:

From the author of First In His Class, the definitive biography of Bill Clinton, When Pride Still Mattered, the bestselling biography of Vince Lombardi, and They Marched Into Sunlight, the classic saga of the Vietnam era—a stunning new multigenerational biography of Barack Obama.
In a groundbreaking work based on hundreds of interviews, including with President Obama, and a trove of letters, journals, and other documents, one of our pre-eminent journalists presents a richly textured account of Barack Obama and the forces that shaped him.

This book begins in Kansas and Kenya, decades before Obama was born, and ends as he prepares for a political life. The reader gains a deeper insight into the first black president of the United States, revealing as never before the arc of his history, character, contradictions, and ambition. As with First In His Class, Maraniss's seminal book will redefine a president.

This seamless narrative moves through generations and around the world, evoking time and place so vividly that readers feel they are there. Maraniss explodes the myths as he explores the difficult and colorful lives of the president’s forebears and then follows young Barack from Hawaii to Indonesia to Los Angeles to New York to Chicago as he struggles with self-identity and searches for home.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
