Jonathan Alter on his new Obama book, "The Promise"
Wednesday, June 9th, 2010
Hour 1
The first year of the Obama administration was nothing if not eventful, with the financial crisis the new president inherited prompting an unprecedented series of bailouts and stimulus package. Obama also ordered a surge in troops to Afghanistan and moved to extract troops from Iraq, responded to terrorist threats and attempted to close Guantanamo Bay’s prison, and, to top it all off, pushed a massive and massively controversial health care reform effort over the resistance of his own staff. On today's "Radio Times," we'll talk to Newsweek senior editor JONATHAN ALTER about his new book, "The Promise."
