Reseña del libro "Running for Congress in Trump's Backyard (en Inglés)"
Whether you love him, hate him, or somewhere in between, few can argue that the rise and subsequent election of Donald J. Trump is perhaps the greatest political phenomenon of our generation. Out of hundreds of Republicans seeking election to Congress at that time, only Robert Ardini had the honor, privilege, and thrill of running in Trump's high-profile District in New York. For the very first time, Ardini reveals that larger-than-life journey. Running for Congress in Trump's Backyard begins with brief reflections on early life experiences that served as the launching pad for his race. He explains how the late Anna Nicole Smith became an essential element! Then the author offers an abbreviated step-by-step account of events from the time he simply 'expressed interest' all the way through election night. And, although he didn't win, he racked up an impressive 50,000 votes! Think of the book as an insider's view of the Manhattan Republican Party and the esteemed Metropolitan Republican Club. Expect President Trump, Ivanka Trump and even Kellyanne Conway to factor in prominently. Ardini's account is also a must read for anyone considering a first run for Congress. In an entertaining style, he streamlines the process, identifies problems and opportunities, and talks strategy in a fascinating way - from his perspective as a former award-winning ad exec. Part 2 of the book is devoted to the former candidate's positions on the issues including fiscal policy, foreign affairs, gridlock, term limits, health care, and some other 'pet' issues such as the space program, abortion, education and immigration. Don't expect boilerplate Republican rhetoric from this politician. After all, his campaign slogan was "A Moderate Republican Even a Democrat Can Like.(TM)"
