N1  - Pareng Barack's America -- America in living color -- Lessons in patriotism and forgiveness -- From the I-Hotel to Powell Street -- Of dogmeat and dictators -- Crazy democracy and the brown man's burden -- The odd way my sons say "Tatay" in Obama's America
N2  - "This book is about Barack Obama's incredible march to the American presidency, and how Filipinos responded--often with excitement, sometimes with fear and dread--to his stunning campaign and victory.

This is also about the Filipino journey in America, how it has intersected, sometimes collided, with those of other communities, and how it has taken a dramatic turn as America enters a new era of anxiety and hope."
