Former President Barack Obama will release the first volume of his memoir Nov. 17, two weeks after Election Day.
The 768-page book, “A Promised Land” will cover the 44th president’s historic rise to the White House and first term in office.
“I’ve spent the last few years reflecting on my presidency, and in ‘A Promised Land’ I’ve tried to provide an honest accounting of my presidential campaign and my time in office: the key events and people who shaped it; my take on what I got right and the mistakes I made; and the political, economic, and cultural forces that my team and I had to confront then — and that as a nation we are grappling with still,” Obama said in a statement Thursday.
The book will also touch on the relationships within the Obama family.
“In the book, I’ve also tried to give readers a sense of the personal journey that Michelle and I went through during those years, with all the incredible highs and lows,” Obama said.
Obama hopes the book will inspire its readers.
“And finally, at a time when America is going through such enormous upheaval, the book offers some of my broader thoughts on how we can heal the divisions in our country going forward and make our democracy work for everybody — a task that won’t depend on any single president, but on all of us as engaged citizens,” he said.

I think the release date is AWESOME!!!
Everyone will be so completely sick and tired of political ads and politicians. And, everyone will be saving up for Christmas and a dry propaganda book will not be on many people’s list.
He is old news. He is a one hit wonder playing at a county fair still trying to be a star. For such a ‘genius’, everything he does turns out failing.
That was my first question... why release after the election?!
It’s definitely a snub at Sleepy Joe. And probably it will be a I-told-you-so book with his arrogance in full bloom.
Good one, Liz.
Hey, I found the PERFECT MODERATOR for a 4th debate between Joe Biden and President Trump.
Zach Galifianakis!

That WAS funny.
The fly knows **** — er I mean a good book — when it sees one.
Just another day in the outhouse..
