Great to show to people who have "doubts" about Obama. Now Updated.

"The program ends with details about Obama's entry into the U.S. Senate and his rise in the Democratic party, but a post-program coda catches us up with the history of his recent campaign."

At a special BuzzFlash value price, including shipping and handling.

From an online reviewer about the Obama "Biography" program that brings you up to his Senate victory:

The Barack Obama Biography was excellent. I intend to show it to everyone who has any doubts of his past.

He has excellent credentials. He is a brilliant man.

I guess if I had one thing to say about the video that I did not like...it would be it was not updated. They leave you at his election to the Senate. I would have liked to see it at least up to his entry into the Presidential Race.

Regardless, it was well worth the money and I enjoyed the biography very much.

Another online reviewer writes:

For those asking, "Who is this Obama guy and where did he come from?", this will answer many of those questions. It spells out his stellar credentials and demonstrates why it is sensible that he'd run for the White House. This work gave me visual images for facts about which I only heard. I heard that Obama's sister was part-Asian and this documentary allowed me to see her. She pronounces her brother's first name with a Southeast Asian staccato instead of the American schwa on the first syllable. I've never been to Kenya and you get beautiful shots of that country here.

Many installations in the "Biography" series are overly gushy and I wonder if the subject demanded that in order to be interviewed. Here, rather than sitting in front of A&E's cameras, Obama is interviewed in profile and there's no way to tell if he was only speaking to that cable channel. The work mentions low points for him. It states that his first autobiography got "lukewarm reviews" and that Bobby Rush beat him substantially in a congressional election.

The work doesn't shy away from the fact that two of Obama's election rivals were felled by sex scandals. However, I didn't think they critiqued Alan Keyes enough. Keyes never lived in Illinois until his campaign, yet previously criticized Hilary Clinton for moving to and running in New York. Keyes upset many when he called Mary Cheney a "selfish hedonist," yet his own daughter shares an identity with Ms. Cheney.

From BuzzFlash:

This is a good, solid 50-minute introduction to Barack Obama, via the "Biography" series, which aired this piece before Obama launched his epic and historic presidential campaign. The Updated Version includes a presidential campaign epilogue.
