In the book, “ MOVING FORWARD” by Chris Kanyane we learn of the integrity, conviction and passion thrusting President Barack Obama toward the accomplishment of withholding the Chief Office of the United States. Mr. Kanyane moves through his book fluidly and with good precision. An easy read, this book takes the reader on a journey, but not so detailed you fight boredom, through the life of Barack Obama and his push for, control of and re-election to President of the United States of America .
This book has many quick chapters depicting different times in Mr. Obama’s life and political campaign. It begins by discussing Mr. Obama’s Longing. The author immediately identifies Mr. Obama’s drive in chapter one: “His longing thirst and all thirsts are burnings that seek quenching”. This reminds the reader of Mr. Obama’s passion for the position and to be the first African American president making history for minorities across the country, and indeed the world.
In the middle of the book we learn more about Mr. Obama’s speeches and writing capability. Describing Barack as a leader who speaks from his heart. This is of course not new to the citizens of America, as most would not argue his speaking capabilities lack in passion or deliverance. However, Mr. Kanyane describes in such detail the feeling of our President that we ourselves are able to experience as if we are in the room watching Barack, tracking his thoughts and feeling his passion from the heart, for his country.
The book ends with the chapter entitled “ Heading Home, The Future is Bright”. Ironically I did feel this way when I was finished! I feel the author does inspire us in his writings of our President. Inspires us that our Commander in Chief has been and is continuing to be the vehicle for change, with passion, belief in his country and help for the common man. The Office of the President, the toughest employment position in the world, held by the right person at the right time. I did learn some of Barack Obama, and a flame grew for my country in reading this short, direct and passionate book about a man for this and future generations.
