Question: this volume ends with the raid on the bin laden compound, where you, after a long effort by the u s military and at your direction found osama bin laden and he was killed in that, in that raid. why did you end there?
Answer: you know, i thought it was a good place to stop. originally, i was going to end with, uh, my reelection. but then, and i can't take credit for this. it was actually a suggestion of cody keenan, one of my former speechwriters who had read my pages, my draft. and he pointed out that it with bin laden what you have is not just sort of a culmination of a lot of the incredible counterterrorism work that our administration had embarked on and really going after al-qaida. and not only was it an example of government at its most effective, cooperating across agencies to carry out a very difficult and dangerous operation, but it was also occurring at the precise same moment that the dominant news was around donald trump's assertion that i was not born in this country and him seizing on the birther movement. and so what i thought was this would be a good place to end the first volume because it indicates the contrast between the serious work of government and these incredible folks from the navy seals to bill mcraven, who's the head of our special forces and engineers, this incredible operation, the diplomats, the intelligence officers, everybody who's having to coordinate hundreds of people under the most severe stress executing this incredible operation. and yet the news is completely dominated during this period by an entirely bogus assertion by what i called at the time, a carnival barker. and it wasn't just fox news that was obsessed with this. every major media outlet. some of the same people who later on would sort of decry donald trump and his very flimsy attachment to the truth were the same people who gave donald trump a big platform during this period. and so i'm sitting at the white house correspondents' dinner with donald trump in attendance, and that's all anybody cares about at the same time as i've got people risking their lives about to take off to go to the abbottabad compound. and i thought that that was a good place to end the first volume because it describes a choice that i think we have as a country. and that is as i say in my preface, is not settled by one election. and that is: can we take the incredible dedication, cooperation, patriotism focus that we applied in the bin laden raid? can we take that and apply that to reducing poverty among children? can we take that to focus and sense of common effort around dealing with climate change? can we take that to make sure that our economy works for everybody and not just a few, can we apply that kind of seriousness to our common public life? or are we going to continue to be pulled into this kind of reality tv, phony controversies and seeing these big issues as just matter of sport, and we've got one team and the other team and they hate each other and we're just going to go at it and it becomes a spectacle. and as i said in my preface, i think that i place faith in this upcoming generation to make the right choice, but it is a choice that we're going to have to make.
