Ivy,
This book did not disappoint!
Ruth,
Bernie Sanders is a phenomenon in contemporary politics。 Since his 20's he has championed the common person, the workers, the mothers, the students, the disenfranchised of this nation。 He governed in Vermont for decades, but he only reached national recognition- and reached it in a big way- when he ran for President in 2016, and again in 2020。In this book, his campaign director, who is closest to him besides his wife Jane, takes on his journey。 His journey around the country, campaigning。 His jo Bernie Sanders is a phenomenon in contemporary politics。 Since his 20's he has championed the common person, the workers, the mothers, the students, the disenfranchised of this nation。 He governed in Vermont for decades, but he only reached national recognition- and reached it in a big way- when he ran for President in 2016, and again in 2020。In this book, his campaign director, who is closest to him besides his wife Jane, takes on his journey。 His journey around the country, campaigning。 His journey from local to state to national politics。 HIs journey sustaining momentum in a climate that has mostly discouraged his platform。There are many personal, behind-the-scenes moments, and in those moments we learn more about Sanders as a man, and how he is driven to make his visions and plans real in the face of so much rejection。Highly recommended, for those interested in the specifics of day-to-day life on the campaign road, and certainly for Bernie Sanders' supporters, who will learn more about him than they knew before regarding what really makes him tick。Many thanks to Edelweiss Plus for the eARC。 。。。more
Andrew Shaffer,
The closest we’re ever likely to get behind the scenes with Bernie。 He apparently likes to dance! Who knew? While Bernie dismisses such talk as “gossip”—one wonders if what he’ll think of this book—his supporters are going to enjoy getting to know him a little better。 A wealth of insight into both the man and his policies, as well as a blow by blow recounting of his 2020 primary campaign that ultimately ended with the Democratic field falling in line behind Joe Biden before Super Tuesday。
