From Obama's former communications director and current co-host of Pod Save America comes a colorful account of how politics, the media, and the Internet changed during the Obama presidency and how Democrats can fight back in the Trump era.
The Decade of Obama (2007-2017) was one of massive change that rewrote the rules of politics in ways we are only now beginning to understand (which is why we all got 2016 wrong). YES WE (STILL) CAN looks at how Obama navigated the forces that allowed Trump to win the White House to become one of the most consequential presidents in American history, why Trump surprised everyone, and how Democrats can come out on top in the long run.
Part political memoir, part blueprint for progressives in the Trump era, YES WE (STILL) CAN is an insider's take on the crazy politics of our time. Pfeiffer, one of Barack Obama's longest serving advisors, tells never-before-told stories from Obama's presidential campaigns to his time in the White House, providing readers with an in-depth, behind the-scenes look at life on the front lines of politics.
Attended Dan's book tour in SF. He looks thinner than his twitter avatar :))
评分Blinkist扫过。更感觉Obama本身应该是一个善良真正友善的人,做总统这几年也是操碎了心了,苍老了太多。作者写得理论感觉一般,但小故事还有点意思。作者记忆力特别好,也算是自己一步步从底层爬上来的工作狂。Obama's win in 2008: attitude, scaling, culture, strategy, message. 讲述了自己在白宫的工作经验,平和和Fox的关系和Obama出生证的应对。现在的媒体环境也变了,Twitter这把双刃剑怎么用好。有一点他说对了就是人们喜欢真实和真诚的东西,Trump的Twitter一看就很authentic,不是代笔。希拉里的落选:性别双标,不再传统的所谓“可参选性”,信息传递,太多数据缺少故事,经济大环境。
评分为啥给四星呢,因为fox news和共和党那两章根本看不下去,勉强读几句心里就着急上火深仇大恨,伤口还太新。谢谢pfeiffer强行乐观,虽然他的对策不现实(i mean, checks and balances, you expect that from the gop? come on),但是年轻人可以救我们出苦海啊
评分雖然是作者寫的第一本書(他本人也承認),但我很欣賞他的寫作和幽默風格,尤其腳註很多時候畫龍點睛。Pfeiffer不愧為是奧巴馬麾下任職時間最長的高級顧問,在很多美國時政問題上分析深刻到位。從他的話語中能察覺美國政治文化的優勢與弊端。他對Twitter給美國政治發展造成的影響的看法很中肯,Twitter絕對是把雙刃劍;另外對Fox News的抨擊有理有據。通過他對自己與奧巴馬共事經歷的敘述,我更加認為奧巴馬是一位偉人、一展旗幟。不過他對希拉里的評價我不敢苟同。她不能說是“most qualified”。
评分mediocre writing
