Hear! I wondered if I was only one who questioned the value of this program. The heart of it seemed to be the debate between two academics, east and west coast but hardly middle America. This was set against endless African-American cliches: black people singing, dancing and doing both in church. Obama's secular evangelism has been caught up lately in the real thing. Unfortunately 4 Corners did not explore the person behind Barack or the nature of the US which he hopes to mould. Hear! Hear! I wondered if I was only one who questioned the value of this program.

This could of been a wonderful opportunity to showcase positive aspects Obama and the dawning of a new generation of U.S. politics. Four Corners rarely gets it wrong but this time was way of the mark. I was really looking forward to the Four Corners expose on Obama and was really disappointed by the content of the show.

That's exactly what I thought! “…But there was no enlightenment, not even a clear focus, or a persuasive narrative thread which might give a broader perspective on attitudes over there….”
