The overall tone is positive and pro-Obama, emphasizing his bipartisan work and his commitment to building communities and reforming government. Rumors and accusations of wrongdoings on Obama's part (drug use, parking tickets, etc.) are addressed and either confirmed or dismissed. Good for homework and for those seeking general information about Obama.
