Man darf es durchaus als einen Glücksfall bezeichnen, dass ein Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten seine Gedanken, Ziele und politischen Schwerpunkte in einem Buch darlegt und so als Person fassbar wird, und dies lange vor seiner Wahl zu einem der wichtigsten Ämter der Welt. Das Buch ist ursprünglich 2006 erschienen, der englische Titel lautet: The audacity of hope. Diese Wendung hat Barack Obama aus einer Predigt des schwarzen Gemeindepfarrers Rev. Jeremiah A. White (S. 455) übernommen. Der Titel ist Programm. Und doch ist dieses Buch alles andere als eine trockene Wegleitung der Demokratischen Partei. Anschaulich schildert er seinen Werdegang als Politiker. Nach der Schule arbeitete er zuerst drei Jahre lang als Community Organizer in einem Armenviertel von Chicago, studierte anschliessend Jus, um als Anwalt in einem Bürgerrechtsbüro arbeiten zu können, vertrat zuerst Springfield (IL) als Senator, scheiterte als Kandidat für das Repräsentantenhaus, wurde aber schliesslich Senator von Illinois in Washington D.C. Seine Vorbilder sind Abraham Lincoln und Martin Luther King. Er war von Anfang an entschlossen, den bisherigen Kurs der amerikanischen Politik zu ändern, und zwar mit der gemeinsamen Hilfe von Demokraten und Republikanern. Man darf gespannt sein. Grundsätze und Kompromissbereitschaft zu vereinen, sieht er als seine Aufgabe als Politiker an. Besonders berührend sind die Kapitel über Religion und über Familie, wo er den Mut zur persönlichen Stellungnahme hat und authentisch wirkt. Paula Küng-Hefti.

Work Description
Senator Obama calls for a different brand of politics--a politics for those weary of bitter partisanship and alienated by the "endless clash of armies" we see in Congress and on the campaign trail; a politics rooted in the faith, inclusiveness, and nobility of spirit at the heart of our democracy. He explores those forces--from the fear of losing, to the perpetual need to raise money, to the power of the media--that can stifle even the best-intentioned politician. He examines the growing economic insecurity of American families, the racial and religious tensions within the body politic, and the transnational threats--from terrorism to pandemic--that gather beyond our shores. And he grapples with the role that faith plays in a democracy. Only by returning to the principles that gave birth to our Constitution, he says, can Americans repair a broken political process, and restore to working order a government dangerously out of touch with millions of ordinary Americans.
