    Im reading ghost wars right now-that book will knock your socks off. I liked Al Frankens new book “the Truth” its partisan as hell, but funny and accurate. You might also like “Dreams from my Father” by Barack Obama. It’s not so much about politics. Mostly its about race relations. Its really insightful in that respect.

    Yah I like Barack but I got enough about race relations in college. Plus I’m dating a half black, half jewish chick so I think I’m good to go
