Through a series of personal stories, eighteen Obama staffers offer intimate accounts of how they made it to the White House. We hear from a married gay staffer pushing the president towards marriage equality; an aide working to implement the Affordable Care Act while battling cancer; a hijab-wearing Muslim adviser accompanying the President to a mosque. From the triumphs of Obamacare and marriage equality to the tragedy of the Charleston shooting, this book tells the history of the Obama presidency through the men and women who worked tirelessly to support his vision for America.
