We Can All Do Better by Bill Bradley

From Goodreads: In We Can All Do Better, for the first time since the financial meltdown and since the worst of the intensifying political gridlock, Bradley offers his own concise, powerful, and highly personal review of the state of the nation. Bradley argues that government is not the problem. He criticizes the role of money and politics, explains how continuing on our existing foreign policy, electoral, and economic paths will mean a diminished future, and lays out exactly what needs to be done to reverse course.

Wow! Everyone American should read this book! Bill Bradley takes the problems in our nation and offers up and offers up a solution.  He outlines both sides of the coin, so to speak, coming up with a solution that will meet the needs of both sides but puts the people first.   He doesn't gloss over anything, but lays it all out on the line - including finances, politics and foreign policy.  I found myself shaking my head in agreement over and over - not only because he made sense, but because I agreed with so  much of it.  A great, thought-provoking read that I highly urge you to pick up!!
