Publisher's Summary:
This audiobook comprehensively weaves the lives and careers of both candidates into one entertaining and educational narrative.
In November 2012, Americans went to the polls to make yet another historic decision. Their choice was to reelect the nation's first African-American president or to elect the first Mormon president.
Though Obama was still young by presidential standards, the biracial native of Hawaii had already traveled a great distance physically and spiritually, learning about himself and discovering his self-identity along the way. After receiving a blue chip education that took him to Harvard Law School and helped him become a law professor and community organizer in Chicago, he began a rapid ascent through state politics to become a US Senator in 2004.
In 2012, America's first African-American president, Barack Obama, faced one of the least conventional Republican politicians the country ever had. From his Mormon faith to his governorship of the very blue Massachusetts, Mitt Romney left many on the right wondering whether he possessed the traditional conservative values that they deemed necessary, even as he spent two straight Republican primary seasons burnishing his conservative credentials. On the other side, Romney's political career and ideology led to charges by Democrats that he was a flip-flopper who would take whichever side of an issue was politically expedient at the time. Throw in the fact that many Americans of all political stripes viewed his forthright and serious demeanor as overly wooden and not personable, the very opposite of a natural politician like Bill Clinton, and people unfamiliar with Romney and his career were left wondering how he was on the verge of becoming the next President of the United States.
2012 was just another chapter in the life of "The Turnaround Artist", as he was known at Bain. In many ways, Romney's life and career were a string of surprising successes. Dubbed a stiff, wooden politician, it was Mitt's outgoing personality that won over childhood sweetheart and wife of 40+ years Ann Davies. A jocular prankster in high school, seriousness was instilled in Romney during a mission in France in which he was badly injured in a car crash, with the woman sitting next to him killed in the wreck.
Election 2012 looks at the lives and careers of both candidates, but it also humanizes them and looks at their relationships with their wives and families. You will learn about Obama and Romney like you never have before, in no time at all.
