I sin nye bok analyserer professor Ole O. Moen USA slik verdens eneste supermakt nå fremstår under president Barack Hussein Obama - både i lys av vår samtid og USAs særegne historiske tradisjoner. Presidentvalget i 2008 var på flere vis begynnelsen på et nytt kapittel i USAs moderne historie. Moen beskriver de nye trekk som nå avtegner seg i den politiske og kulturelle hverdag.

Denne boken forteller historien om dette landet i en ny og annerledes tidsalder. Det er sterke bånd som knytter Norge til USA. En naturlig konsekvens av dette er at de fleste nordmenn mener seg å kjenne USA. Onkel Sam er en gammel kjenning, men vår generelle innsikt i amerikansk kultur og politikk er relativt overflatisk. Denne boken er et bidrag til en bedre forståelse av dagens amerikanske samfunn.
