Senator Barack Obama (D-IL)
Young Mr. Obama
In his new biography of Barack Obama, former Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendell “deconstructs” the Illinois Senator and Democratic presidential candidate, writing that his rise has been long-planned by Obama and his close aides. Also, we follow up on the continuing fallout over the Deutsche Bank fire, and look at why Governor Spitzer is suing the Bush administration over federally subsidized child health care. And would you take money to post advertising on your car? What about on your shirt? Plus your calls on fun ways to excersize.
