My friend Francisco Gonzales is one of three young co-authors of a new book, Who Is the Real Barack Obama? The book, according to their Web site, is aimed specifically at younger voters.

What may make the book particularly interesting is that the three co-authors are all libertarian-leaning conservatives. Steve Bierfeldt was active in the Ron Paul campaign and managed the Paulista congressional campaign of Amit Singh in Virginia. Brendan Steinhauser works at Dick Armey's FreedomWorks. Gonzales is employed by a Florida free-market think tank, the James Madison Institute. So it might be expected that their treatment of the Obama phenomenon will differ from run-of-the-mill Hannityesque stuff.
