“The Amateur” by Ed Klein – Chapters 10 -11

Independent Sentinel  "This book has 22 chapters filled with quotes and interviews by people with insider information on Barack Obama. While the left has put down the author, they have not been able to dispute the quotes in the book.

"Ed Klein offers a good deal of opinion based on interviews. It is an intense character analysis."
Chapter 10;  Valerie V. Rahm  "Emanuel and Jarrett were not friends and Emanuel did try to block her appointment to the WH staff. She didn’t like his style of one-hand-washes-the-other. Emanuel is a realist and wanted to cut deals on the economy. Jarrett thwarted him at every turn. Axelrod and Jarrett kept Obama on his big-spending, big-government path."

Chapter 11; The Wrath of Michelle

"Michelle hides her co-presidency with her husband and their shared worldview is what is bringing us closer to European-style socialism.
"She is even further left than her husband. She pushed the healthcare initiative when most advisers were saying not to. She has a strong sense of social justice."
