Barack Obama
Reviewer: Jennifer (Great White North, Canada) December 6, 2009

Coming from Canada, we don't get much background information on US presidents, so we thought we'd join this tour to get the inside scoop. And boy did we! Maybe it's common knowledge in the USA, but to see where the President grew up and how that formed his background was great stuff. Highly recommended! |
