Barack Obama and ‘The American Wanderer’
Travel Blog • Michael Yessis • 08.29.08 | 12:04 PM ET
Michael Powell offers an intriguing examination of the American tradition of “wanderlust ambition.” A familiar subject, but I like Powell’s angle: He gets into the story through Barack Obama’s personal story, and talks about whether or not “Americans desire a lodestar rather than a wanderer in their leaders.”
