Event Description:
Bill Press, prominent liberal syndicated radio and television host (and part-time Inverness resident), concisely explains the many ways he says President Obama has failed to live up to either his promises or his progressive potential. In his new book, Press reflects back on what for many progressives has been a disappointing presidency and comes to a depressing conclusion: Obama grossly misunderstood the mandate of the enthusiastic crowds that swarmed him on the campaign trail. Instead of recognizing their burning desire for strong progressive leadership, Obama tried to be a “postpartisan” president. According to Press, he leaves his supporters haunted by what might have been. Whether you agree or disagree, this will be a lively evening. ]]>
