I regularly troll the Kindle book "Bestseller" page in search of free books.  Usually, free is more than they're worth, because they are so poorly edited or written that it's a waste of my time to read them.  The exception occurs when a publisher prices at zero an author's earlier published work, in order to entice people into buying a newly published book by the same author.  So it was that I found myself the proud owner of "Obama: The Greatest President in the History of Everything." Although published in November 2011, Fleming's book is still as timely as it was back then -- and it's clearly a perfect lead-in to his newly released ebook "How to Fix Everything in America Forever: The Plan to Keep America Awesome" (which I haven't yet read).Fleming writes "Obama : The Greatest President in the History of Everything" from the perspective of a naif who is overwhelmed by Obama's almost supernatural genius, even when he can't quite explain how the genius works or why its effects, more often than not, are completely counterproductive.The book is short (the equivalent of about 30 pages) and that's just fine.  It made a quick delightful read.I especially appreciated the way Fleming attacked Obama front, back, top and bottom with such good cheer.  This is not a vicious take-down of the President.  Instead, it's something better -- a political satire with wit, good cheer, and brevity.
