How has Barack Obama done in his first term as a "progressive
president," especially in relation to his campaign assertions? This
book analyzes the performance of Obama and his administration in
promoting progressive causes in a wide range of policy areas,
including the economy, education, immigration, healthcare reform,
criminal justice, and foreign affairs. Grading the 44th President:
A Report Card on Barack Obama's First Term as a Progressive Leader
is written in clear language that is free of jargon and from a
leftist perspective, offering a comprehensive analysis and critique
of Obama's performance as a progressive president during his first
term. The authors provide in-depth analyses with respect to Obama's
handling of specific issues, including the economy, education,
healthcare, criminal justice policy, the environment, immigration,
Iraq and Afghanistan, race relations, gender issues, and
gay/lesbian issues, covering topics in detail that general
biographies of Obama and examinations of his political career miss.
This book presents clear, accessible information for general
readers, and contains in-depth discussion of topics useful to high
school, college, and university students of sociology, government,
political science, philosophy, and history.
