The Centrist Solution - How We Made Government Work and Can Make It Work Again (Hardcover): Joe Lieberman The Centrist Solution - How We Made Government Work and Can Make It Work Again (Hardcover)
Joe Lieberman

Senator Joseph Lieberman offers a master class in effective government by probing his forty years in elective office-from the Vietnam War era to the Presidency of Barack Obama-and by shining a light on historic acts of centrism and compromise, extracting productive and problem-solving lessons and techniques we need now more than ever. In this era of extremism, our largest problems remain unsolved and our international leadership is compromised. Having two fiercely opposed political parties is what John Adams, the second President of the United States, dreaded "as the greatest political evil under our Constitution." If American government is to work, it must do so in the center-where open discussion, hard negotiation, and effective compromise take place. No living politician knows this better than former Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, who served for forty years in state and national government, including twenty-four in the United States Senate and a campaign for the Vice Presidency. In this vivid account of his political life, Senator Lieberman shows how legislative progress and all-inclusive government occurs when politicians reject extremism and embrace productive compromise. In The Centrist Solution, he shines a light on ten milestones of centrist success during his time in government-from the Clean Air Act of 1990 and the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 to the creation of the Department of Homeland Security and the repeal of the military's anti-gay "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy, along with a Vice Presidential run with Presidential Candidate Al Gore, and being vetted by John McCain to be his potential running mate on the 2008 Republican Ticket. In the telling, Senator Lieberman extracts clear lessons and proven methods of centrist collaboration that can carry us forward after years of partisan warfare and legislative inaction. The centrist solution leads to government truly of the people, by the people, and for the people-a citizenry looking for solutions, not extremist standoffs.

HOW? - No Labels Answers  The Most Important Question  Of the 2016 Election (Paperback): Jon Huntsman, Joe Lieberman HOW? - No Labels Answers The Most Important Question Of the 2016 Election (Paperback)
Jon Huntsman, Joe Lieberman; Foreword by Mack McLarty, Al Cardenas
R302 R249 Discovery Miles 2 490 Save R53 (18%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Presidential candidates often talk about being uniters. They pledge to break through the partisan gridlock in Washington. They vow to bring Democrats and Republicans together to tackle the nation's most vexing problems. But they never explain how they plan to do this – and their promises rarely translate to action. In this volume, NO LABELS provides a real strategy for how – how today's political leaders can finally unite a divided country to solve urgent problems, from stagnating wages to social safety net programs heading toward insolvency. This groundbreaking plan of action is called the National Strategic Agenda. It begins with goals for the country that come straight from the American people and ends with a commitment by the next president to embark on this bipartisan problem-solving process within 30 days of taking the oath of office. The National Strategic Agenda has already gained the support of major figures in business, economics, academia, policy and politics, and more than 65 members of Congress. In this timely book, arguably the most important you will read during the 2016 campaign season, NO LABELS co-chairs Gov. Jon Huntsman and Sen. Joe Lieberman are joined by other leaders who've been on the front lines of problem solving in politics and business to make a strong case for this new governing framework.

Hadassah - An American Story (Hardcover): Hadassah Lieberman, Joe Lieberman, Megan McCain, Meghan McCain Hadassah - An American Story (Hardcover)
Hadassah Lieberman, Joe Lieberman, Megan McCain, Meghan McCain
R685 Discovery Miles 6 850 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Born in Prague to Holocaust survivors, Hadassah Lieberman and her family immigrated in 1949 to the United States. She went on to earn a BA from Boston University in government and dramatics and an MA in international relations and American government from Northeastern University. She built a career devoted largely to public health that has included positions at Lehman Brothers, Pfizer, and the National Research Council. After her first marriage ended in divorce, she married Joe Lieberman, a US senator from Connecticut who was the Democratic nominee for vice president with Al Gore and would go on to run for president. In Hadassah, Lieberman pens the compelling story of her extraordinary life: from her family's experience in Eastern Europe to their move to Gardner, Massachusetts; forging her career; experiencing divorce; and, following her remarriage, her life on the national political stage. By offering insight into her identity as an immigrant, an American Jew, a working woman, and a wife, mother, and grandmother, Lieberman's moving memoir speaks to many of the major issues of our time, from immigration to gender politics. Featuring an introduction by Joe Lieberman and an afterword by Megan McCain, it is a true American story.
