Obama and Me: The Incredible True Story of a YouTube Sensation is the hilarious account of how a penniless Brummie journalist left all his responsibilities at home and went to volunteer for Barack Obama. Living on his wits Steve Zacharanda fought the good fight in Miami getting into countless scrapes. Steve was catapulted to brief infamy when he became an International YouTube Sensation after his foul mouthed video captured the imagination of a world celebrating Obama's victory. He was derided for humiliating British journalism by some, but lauded as a legend by others. This painfully honest book is now being hailed as one of the funniest ever written about politics and has captured the historic Obama campaign of 2008 as never before. No-one has written about the humorous side of the campaign like this before and is a must read for anyone interested in American politics or political campaigning. " This is the funniest book anyone will read about politics - Zacharanda is the closest thing we now have to Hunter S. Thompson" - Ellie Piovesana - New magazine.
