The Accidental Activist
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This personal and political memoir clearly depicts the struggles and warmth of her experience. The determination to explain what it is like to live as a homosexual in America has been successful. One of the most heroic works I have read.
Absolutely Activating!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 28 years ago
Candace Gingrich has in her own way scared me into becoming more of an activist than I would ever have considered myself being. Living my everyday life believing that I knew what was going on in Washington has all changed thanks to the Accidental Activist. Candace goes out of her way to give "Brother Newt" every oppurtunity available to counter her words, but is always snubbed instead. Critics blasting her for using Newt's "fame" as a way to boost her own popularity obviously haven't read the book! Candace proves that she's a leader in her own right, and obviously, this Gingrich knows the true meaning of words such as "power" and "family values". A MUST READ for ANY and ALL people interested in what's going on in government and human rights today!
