From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
The so-called Obamaphone program started in 1984 to provide telephone service to poor people, because not having a phone is a big hindrance to getting a job. In recent years, the program has provided cell phones, and some of the companies that make them branded them in 2009 as Obamaphones, to capitalize on Obama's popularity, but they have nothing whatsoever to do with him. If any President were to get credit or blame for it, I guess it would be Reagan.
