      In questo libro, Obama promuove la creazione di un diverso tipo di politica, capace di soddisfare le aspettative delle persone comuni, basata sulla fiducia e sulla reciprocità. Con sorprendente apertura, raffinatezza e umorismo autocritico, il libro descrive non solo la visione di come la società americana possa superare le proprie contraddizioni e affrontare problemi concreti, ma anche le varie pressioni sociali che possono sopraffare anche i politici mossi dalle migliori intenzioni. Il testo affronta l'insicurezza economica crescente delle famiglie americane, le tensioni razziali e religiose, nonché le minacce transnazionali come il terrorismo e le pandemie. Si interroga sul ruolo della religione nella democrazia, cercando di definire dove la fede debba essere una parte vitale del processo democratico e dove non dovrebbe interferire. Obama scrive un'opera capace di ispirare lettori e cittadini in tutto il mondo, sostenendo che gli americani possono riparare un processo politico mal funzionante solo tornando ai principi fondanti della Costituzione americana.
