Books that Obama is reading – 60 Minute Interview

 Are you curious as to what books Barack Obama is reading?  Check out this interview on 60 minutes: 

His role models during this transition seem to be Abraham Lincoln and FDR.

You can find a great deal on Obama Books at the Progressive Book Club.  In fact, you can buy 3 books for $3. 

I recently joined and  purchased these books:

Nobel Peace Prize winner Paul Krugman’s book - The Conscience of a Liberal
The Green Collar Economy by Van Jones
The Audacity of Hope - by Barack Obama

I don’t know if you knew this, but Obama actually wrote his own book, rather than having a ghost writer write it for him.   He’s an excellent writer.  When you read his book, you’ll actually find that Obama is more of a centrist than a liberal.
