The plan

After eight years of a calamitous Bush presidency, the election of Barack Obama makes clear that America is hungry for change. And no wonder: The worst economic crisis since the Depression, two wars, an endangered planet, and a broken political system have wearied the American soul. The Plan is a reform agenda of ideas for change in America,a new map for the daunting challenges of a new century. First written on the eve of the Democrats ̕sweeping victory in the 2006 mid-term elections, this edition features a new introduction on the historic, inspiring 2008 election, and the opportunity for Americans to think, act, and hope anew.
