An Opportunity for Liberty and Justice for All

For such a small book, If You Had Five Minutes with the President, it carries a lot of weight, and there is something for everyone in it words. Let's face it, celebrities and personalities are paid attention to by our leaders. When they have something to say, people listen. Each personality in this book speaks eloquently about his/her indvidual concerns about homelessness, war, the electoral process, the death penalty and the distance of airport parking from the main terminal, (Tucker Carlson) and much more. I think all of our concerns are touched upon in this book in a gentle manner. No screaming, no anger, no blaming. As a school teacher I think this would be an appropriate addition to secondary school libraries as a way to intoduce kids to the reality of what is life in America. The Creative Cooaltion has given us an opportunity to participate in the political process and, for what it's worth, I commend them for it.
