Letters to the Next President by Richard Lugar Pdf

Praise for the 1988 edition: "In this thoughtful volume, Senator Lugar elegantly sets forth his views on the challenges that will confront the coming administration in the conduct of our nation's foreign policy." Henry A. Kissinger "A thoughtful set of foreign policy prescriptions by one of the Senate's most thoughtful leaders - it should be read by our next President, even if he is not an enlightened conservative!" Zbigniew Brzezinski "Richard Lugar's leadership in foreign affairs has impressed me as one of the soundest in public life today. His [book] reflects the depth of his experience and insights." Max Kampelman "The next President should welcome and greatly benefit from the responsible and experienced policy recommendations of Senator Dick Lugar." Gerald Ford "The Senator shows that it is possible to be principled even in international politics and still come out a winner. He is just as incisive and wise in this book, which clarifies some of the most complex issues in the conduct of foreign affairs." Corazon C. Aquino Senator Richard Lugar is Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the longest serving Senator in Indiana history, and a five-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee. He is the co-author of the Nunn-Lugar Cooperative Threat Reduction Program, which has safeguarded and destroyed more than 6,300 nuclear warheads in the former Soviet Union, along with hundreds of missiles, bombers, submarines and other weapons left over from the Cold War arms race. In Letters to the Next President, Senator Lugar challenges all presidential hopefuls - and every concerned citizen - to reexamine their views on foreign policy. He offers the next president ten rules for presidential leadership in foreign policy that are as valid today as they were in 1988.

Dear Oval Office Occupant by Kathy Hayes Pdf

When Donald Trump was elected president, Kathy Hayes was stunned. He didn't have relevant experience or qualifications. He mocked women, immigrants veterans and the disabled. He had presided over a string of bankruptcies, lawsuits and a bogus university. She knew she couldn't remain silent. On Dec. 1, 2016, she wrote him an old-fashioned paper letter, put it in an envelope with a stamp and mailed it. Then she wrote another, and another. Beginning on Inauguration Day, the letters became a daily discipline. What began as a simple act of protest morphed into much more: a chronicle of current events and presidential misdeeds; a journal of her frustrations and fears; and the birth story of an unlikely activist. With flashes of humor, poignancy and righteous anger, Hayes's letters document the struggles of an ordinary citizen trying to make sense of a presidency like no other. Entertaining and inspiring, Oval Office Occupant challenges readers to find within themselves the courage to speak truth to power.

Predicting the Next President by Allan J. Lichtman,Allan Lichtman Pdf

In the days after Donald Trump’s unexpected victory on election night 2016, The New York Times, CNN, and other leading media outlets reached out to one of the few pundits who had correctly predicted the outcome, Allan J. Lichtman. While many election forecasters base their findings exclusively on public opinion polls, Lichtman looks at the underlying fundamentals that have driven every presidential election since 1860. Using his 13 historical factors or “keys” (four political, seven performance, and two personality), Lichtman had been predicting Trump’s win since September 2016. In the updated 2024 edition, he applies the keys to every presidential election since 1860 and shows readers the current state of the 2024 race. In doing so, he dispels much of the mystery behind electoral politics and challenges many traditional assumptions. An indispensable resource for political junkies!

Ten Letters by Eli Saslow Pdf

Every day, President Obama read ten of the letters he received from citizens across America. Here are ten of those letters, along with President Obama's responses and the stories behind them. The letters come from people of all ages, walks of life, and political points of view. Some are heart­breaking, some angry, some hopeful. Indeed, Obama reads as many letters addressed “Dear Jackass” as “Dear Mr. President.” Eli Saslow, a young and rising star at the Washington Post, became fascinated by the power of these letters and set out to find the stories behind them. Through the lens of ten letters to which Obama responded personally, this exceptionally relevant and poignant book explores those individual stories, taking an in-depth look at the misfortunes, needs, opinions, and, yes, anger over the current state of the country that inspired ten people to put pen to paper. Surprisingly, what also emerges from these affecting personal narratives is a story about the astounding endurance and optimism of the American people. Ten Letters is an inspiring and important book about ordi­nary people and the issues they face every day—the very issues that are shaping America’s future. This is not an insider Washington book by any means, but a book for the times that tells the real American stories of today.
