Book Reviews of Common Ground: How to Stop the Partisan War That Is Destroying America

Book Review: One of the best political books in years
Summary: 5 Stars

You can see why the authors are friends. There is a level of respect and admiration on both ends. They may not agree on certain issues, but they both want what is good for America. Since I am a Democrat, I will say I am glad to see Thomas agrees with Beckel on the most partisan posturing that has been going on as of recent history and that Republicans have been driving it. Not that the Democrats have been innocent, but Republicans just took it too unimaginable levels.

I am also glad to see that they cover the history of politics. Goldwater working with Carter (post lawsuit) was interesting. All-in-all, I think politicians should read this book. Perhaps their perspectives would change somewhat.
