Jonathan Alter
In
his latest book, Alter chronicles Obama’s first year presidency from
the crises he inherited to the outsized expectations he faced.
Jonathan Alter’s book is a refreshing reminder of the record number
of legislative successes achieved by this administration in its
first year. However these achievements and domestic success have
done little to improve public opinion or the prognosis for Democrats
in Nov.
Can the President recover and what does he need to do? As Frank Rich
wrote about Alter’s book, “It’s a credible guide to what’s gone
right, but also to what’s gone wrong and what, we must hope, can be
fixed.”
Jonathan Alter
is a senior editor and award-winning columnist for
Newsweek, a television analyst and contributing
correspondent to NBC News and acclaimed author. His 2006
book, The Defining Moment: FDR's Hundred Days and the Triumph of Hope, was a national bestseller.
