"I know that the stereotypes of the United States are out there, ...by television shows and movies and misinformation." - FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA This book premise is simple: The world is often misled, as President Obama opined, to see the United States through the icons its pop culture has produced. "...it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." President Obama long held that the world could be improved, that America had often self-inflicted stereotypes through its popular media and entertainment outlets. During his eight years in office, he made repeated and regular appearances on many of these social and corporate media outlets in order to ensure that his Administrations goals and accomplishments were accurately represented.
