Introduction: The stranger -- A not-so-fresh start -- Getting rolled early -- Unplanned legacy -- Triage -- Reluctant warrior -- The re-election begins ... sort of -- The winter thaw -- The veep steps up -- Coming around on Clinton -- The hunt begins -- Trump, bin Laden, and the craziest week of the presidency -- The Chief Executive learns to manage -- A challenger emerges -- If he had a son -- They were first-graders -- The lost year -- A thick red line -- Control-alt-delete -- The legacy.
Summary: Barack Obama won the presidency in 2008 partly because he was a Washington outsider. But when he got to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, that distinction turned out to be double-bladed. NBC's award-winning Chief White House Correspondent Chuck Todd draws upon his unprecedented inner-circle sources to create a gripping account of Obama's tumultuous first term and campaign to win another.
