Posted this morning at Electric Politics, a podcast interview with
Paul Street, author of Barack Obama and the Future of American
Politics. Paul was a Vice President of the Chicago Urban League during
the time that Mr. Obama got his start in Illinois state politics, and
Paul has a pretty accurate idea of who this guy really is. Moreover,
Paul brings a sensible far-left tradition to bear on the larger
political questions.
Although wholesale condemnation of Mr. Obama may be premature, Paul's
points are well taken.
If you think that the podcast is worthwhile please feel free to
forward the link.
Enjoy!
