Dreams from my father final summary

In the end Obama is a different man then he was in the beginning. In the beginning he was someone that noone really knew except for his friends and family, but and the end we know what he did and who he was exactly. Obama in the beginning was a man that was a great leader and at teh end was still a great leader. The book intailed some of the most memorable parts of Obamas life that were exciting to him and him only. Closer to the end of the book Obama finds out more about his father and what his father was doing when he wasn't with Baracks mom. Obama didn't go to his fathers funeral for the simple fact the he didn't know his father very much.
