Insights: America’s-Voters-At-Large, is a comprehensive American story that the author, Barbara Hobbs, devotes to the American people’s general perceptions of the 2008-2009 economic recession. The worse recession since Depression 1929, reports indicate; the general public’s reactions to the mountainous challenges the new Commander-in-Chief endures during his first 100 days in the Oval office; the public’s-at-large responses to the amazing partisanship on Capitol Hill; and a suggested win-win solution to the complex problem. Included also are satirical anecdotes and poetry, mostly depicting the electrifying 2008 presidential race and the 2008-2009 America’s general politics.
