But something was stirring. Hundreds of young people from all over the country, inspired by a message of hope and change, began assembling in Iowa. What compelled them to uproot their lives and join a nascent movement considered such a longshot?gshot?

Review Quotes: "A readable collective chorus of hopeful voices tirelessly promoting Obama's patriotism, moral clarity, and honorable leadership....
