  • American presidents know that from the moment they wake up to the moment they go to bed, the lens of history is on them. For former President Barack Obama, that lens typically belonged to official White House photographer Pete Souza, who traveled just about everywhere with him. When the White House changed hands, Souza didn't stop telling Obama's story - but he started doing it in a very different way, using the photos he took on the job, to offer a silent commentary on President Trump via social media. He documents it all in his new book, ‘SHADE: A Tale Of Two Presidents.’ Jim Braude was joined by Pete Souza.

    I didn't always agree with Obama but I would vote for him if he could run again. He would repair this country. I think he would be the only person who could.

      Amen. I adored Obama throughout the '08 campaign and was lovingly grateful for him every single day of his presidency. But after almost 3 years of Trump I feel like a battered wife with severe PTSD. Now, I weep when I look at pics and videos of Obama - both because I miss him excruciatingly, and also because this demented psychopath in the Oval Office kicks this country in the kidney. Every. Goddamn. Day. 😥

    can America survive four years of Donald Trump?

But wait a minute the people of color just like the ones he employees at lar log go, Mexican, and anyone of color.

      Terry Quinn yeah sure Crackhead. I live very close to the old Post residence he presently owns and it’s a golf club you stupid fuck. The President lives in the White House (till 2024) and rarely visits except to play golf! So yes I assume Latins work there, but they are legal you stupid prick, and paid very well! More than you make! That butt hole of yours is so stretched out of shape I suspect by 2024, you could park a truck in. I really feel sorry for you stupid losers.

As much as I enjoyed not having any commercials, I wish there was one so that I could call all my friends and tell them to watch it! I am looking forward to reading Pete Souza's book, "Shade, A Tale of Two Presidents." My sympathy to Pete on the recent loss of his mother. Ironic, that she questioned his career choice to become a photographer...
