Book Description
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.

Book Description
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.

Book Description
Our Backs were to the Wall (Street that is) and we were absolutely desparate to survive anyway we could, and there was only one path, one hope that had any chance, if any, to get out of this BLACK HOLE OF BEING TAXED TO DEATH IN THOSE 8 YEARS. TO ELECT ANOTHER ONE OF THEM THAT HAD DONE THIS HORROR TO US, JUST WOULD NOT DO!!! WE HAD AND HAVE NO OPTIONS LEFT,THIS WAS IT. NO OTHER WOULD DO AND IF IT WENT THE WRONG WAY, NONE OF US OR NONE OF THE 300 MILLION OF THIS NATION COULD SURVIVE EVEN ONE MORE DAY OF THAT KIND OF ADMINISTRATION OR GROUP IN POWER. THERE WAS NO OTHER OPTION, IT HAD TO GO ONLY ONE WAY AND FORTUNATELY IT DID. THANK GOD FOR SEEING US THROUGH TO THE RIGHT CONCLUSION.
