Summary: Very Impressive Ideas
Comment: In 1996, when Steve Forbes ran a long shot race for the presidency, many voters (including me) dismissed him as a rich kid with no political experience on an ego trip. His commercials seemed mean-spirited, and his campaign came across as a one-issue rant; the flat tax would solve all of society's woes. What a difference four years can make!
Steve Forbes is again seeking the Republican nomination, but this time he has a well-rounded, coherent message which is fully presented in his new book. Rich in specifics, and refreshingly vacuous on spin, A New Birth of Freedom spells out Forbes' comprehensive plan to get America back on track. Heroically restrained in knocking Bill Clinton (the word "Monica" never appears) and other obvious targets, Forbes is more general in his criticism of career politicians whom he sees as out of touch with America.
His message is far more than a flat tax nepenthe-although abolishing the IRS and replacing it with a flat tax is still a cornerstone of his would-be presidency. Still he presents several other features and many of them are nothing short of courageous in their specifics. He has concrete ideas on how to improve not save "social security." Rather than the ambulance-chasing attorneys' dream "Patient's Bill of Rights" currently being forced through Congress, Forbes offers a "Patients' Declaration of Independence" that will remove government's intrusive and clumsy hands and allow individuals to make their own decisions and empower dedicated doctors and nurses by eliminating bureaucratic red tape. While other candidates tremble at the mention of the word "abortion," Forbes takes a bold pro-life stance, and perhaps unlike any other candidate since the Roe vs. Wade debacle, he has a systematic, pragmatic plan to lead America into its proud, post-legal abortion era. For those of us who are sick of seeing rich politicians send their children to exclusive private schools, while squashing poorer parents' abilities to do the same, Forbes has a common sense goal of seeing voucher programs thrive. Gone will be the days of placating pushy teacher unions while ignoring the concerns of poorer families. Although I would like to see him take an even stronger stand against China, he would replace the current U.S. policy of blind appeasement with a healthy concern for American interests and a vociferous call for human rights in the nation where pandemic atrocities against mankind are common knowledge. This is merely one facet of his call to replace Clinton's haphazard make-it-up-as-you go foreign policy by making America a respected international presence again
Despite being born into wealth, Forbes shows a true understanding for people of more modest means and displays a genuine concern for minorities which could easily explain why so many prominent black conservatives including Alveda King and Herman Cain are backing him.
After 8 years of Clinton, anyone short of Jack Kervorkian will seem like a good president, and some of the other candidates-notably George W. Bush probably would be very impressive as Commander-in Chief. However, before making up one's mind to cast a vote for our next president, I strongly urge everyone to read this book and compare Forbes thorough proposals to the other noble contenders' visions. Four years ago, I could not see myself ever backing Steve Forbes, but A New Birth of Freedom combined with his improved broad-based message has changed my mind. I heartily recommend this book written by our next president.

Summary: Steve Forbes, A New Birth of Freedom: Vision for America
Comment: Steve Forbes clearly demonstrates why he is THE choice for President of the United States in 2000. Reading this book leaves no questions about his agenda. It also leaves no doubt that the agenda of the conservative candidates has been set by Mr. Forbes. His views on Taxes, the IRS, Social Security, Medical Savings Accounts, School Vouchers, Foreign and Domestic Policy are all outlined and are as clear as a bell.
You will be impressed and you will be moved to support a man that has no ROOTS in and is not influenced by the "Beltway Establishment". If you truly want change in America, you must learn about the issues and how they should be changed.
I HIGHLY recommend this book. Go into the primaries with your eyes wide open. Steve is not a flashy guy, but he is a very smart and articulate man. He is a leader for the 21st century. Enjoy the read.

Summary: Steve Forbes accentuates the beauty of conservatism
Comment: The title of my review ought to paraprhase all the nice things I have to say about this book. Mr. Forbes is an eloquent writer, who glibly conveys his thoughts. Often, when people refer to the adjectives "conservative" and "liberal", they, quite understandably so, misconstrue their meanings to be "dogmatic" and "progressive". Not so. Steve Forbes believes in the inherent goodness of people, and is certain that when they're given more control of their own assets, they will direct it to good cause.
