It was so deeply moving that in parts of it, I cried for what we have lost in this country.<\/p>\n<p>Souza really captured the beauty and humanity of Obama as a human being, a man, husband, father, and as president of the country. The documentary made me hunger for:<\/p>\n<p>Waking up without checking my phone for the latest trump travesty<br \/>\nLiving without a knot of anxiety in my gut about this election.<\/p>\n<p>Not having to check on the latest numbers of new Covid cases in the country<\/p>\n<p>The certainty of a president who knows what the hell he\/she is doing<br \/>\nNot having to hear about the president every minute 24\/7<\/p>\n<p>Civility<\/p>\n<p>Tolerance for our differences<\/p>\n<p>Eloquence and integrity in a president\u2019s words<\/p>\n<p>No manipulation of info from the CDC, Homeland Security, or any other government agency<\/p>\n<p>Normal life<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s just for starters.<\/p>\n<p>The challenge is that we don\u2019t have a normal anymore. Trump has destroyed it politically, socially, culturally, judicially. And the pandemic has done the rest. Some morning I wake up and think, Did I get to an alternate reality last night? Am I going to look at my cell and see that all our borders are open again? That Covid is contained?<\/p>\n<p>You get the idea here. This country screams for healing. Four more years of trump will kill us. If we\u2019re going to survive as a democracy, a people, a planet, an economy, a world, Biden needs to win in a landslide. A blue tsunami.<\/p>\n<p>P.S. My dad would be 107 today. For decades, he was a Republican. But with the Bush presidency that started in 2o00, my dad started turning. He would find the trump admin abhorrent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A trailer&#8230; +++ The other night, MSNBC ran a documentary of Peter Souza, who was the Obama admin photographer for eight years.
