Product Description
Are you fed up with bickering politicians, self-satisfied bureaucrats, and a government that never seems to address the real problems facing our country? Can we create a government that is small, efficient, and responsive--from the state house to the White House? Is that kind of real change even possible?

Newt Gingrich, architect of the Contract with America, says it's time for citizens to demand results from our elected officials. In this revealing and exciting new book, he shows how America can achieve transformational change--from a government of bureaucratic failure to a government that can meet the challenges of the twenty-first century.

As a first step, Gingrich busts the pernicious myth that America is divided between conservative red states and liberal blue states. As Gingrich points out, the American people are united on almost every important issue facing our country--including immigration, taxes, defending America, and freedom of religion. The real division is between red-white-and-blue America and a fringe on the left. Red-white-and-blue America believes overwhelmingly--by majorities of 70 percent or more--that we need a change in course. But our politicians aren't listening. Gingrich reveals why the Democratic Party can't deliver real change and why the Republican Party won't. He provides answers and a step-by-step, issue-by-issue toolkit for building a better America--the safe, innovative, and dynamic America we all want.

What will take us from the world that fails to the world that works? Real change--the kind of change that happens when politicians drop their own agendas and respond to the will of the people. Newt Gingrich shows us how we can make real change a reality.

5 out of 5 stars Jam packed with documented, accurate information! A MUST read for ALL Americans.   September 23, 2008

I bought the audio version because I drive a ton for my job. I cannot stop listening to this book. I learn something new every time. It is amazing how informative it is. Newt is smart. He knows his stuff. His theories on government are based on facts and they just make sense. Wow, why doesn't this guy run for President? Before buying this book I wasn't really into politics but now I can't help but get involved. More Americans need to be educated on what it means to live in a democracy and that government is not the answer to all our problems. We have been preconditioned to believe so. "We" are not government and government does not have the power and should not have the power to make decisions that are blatantly the opposite of what the majority of Americans want. We are the people!


5 out of 5 stars Voter's Must Read to make your voice heard in November   September 16, 2008

This book is an exceptional and well thought out direction, with appropriate actions, to improve American excellence in the world. It thoroughly defines fundamental problems in American policies with appropriate prescriptions. Every voter in America should read this before voting in the national election in November.


3 out of 5 stars Is this the same Newt we knew !   August 15, 2008

The book is a compilation of dreams of a man in suspended reality. Newt had a mess on his hands in 1994 when he took over as a speaker, and now in this book you can find out why the House Speaker's job during the following years became even more of a disaster. How can a man whose personal life is so shattered by his own deceitful ways, try and tell people in this book, "How things should be"?
I gave this book 3 stars because an intelligent person can read it and use it as a guide for his or her political thinking, by taking what Newt endorses and then following the near opposite path. But please buy the book used from the Amazon.com Marketplace. And I think the epitome of hypocrisy is for Mr. Gingrich to let the words truth, or Christian anything come out in his writing.....yeech!

Gringrich cites American's responses to polls on topics that are very important such as health care, how to handle terrorism, taxes, competitiveness, etc. The results of the poll show a preponderance of Americans believe in common sense solutions yet our elected representatives cannot agree on anything. He identifies a series of solutions that address these important topics and shows how the left is out of step with the poll responders. This is a good read with more balance than you might expect as Republicans get their fair share of blame.
