Customer Reviews

Most issue-oriented book ever for a presidential candidate.

Never has a candidate for President issued such a detailed, issue-oriented book during a campaign."Worth Fighting For" is packed with facts, figures, and solid arguments for each of the policy positions Quayle espouses. The book is divided into 6 parts, each with a series of short chapters which give the reader a cogent treatment of an issue our country faces today. From the cultural divide, to the middle-class family, the global economy, to security abroad, the former VP shows us why America's future -- its ideals, truths, and children -- are worth fighting for.The book's chapters on school choice, tax cuts, restoring justice through the proper appointment of judges, and China are especially compelling.Quayle finishes with 10 detailed campaign promises. At the end of this book, you will know exactly where the former VP stands, and why.This book is extremely well-written. Quayle grounds his positions in history, both his public service in the legislative and executive branches as well as world history. I challenge anyone to find a more comprehensive, issue-oriented monograph by a political candidate."Worth Fighting For" embodies a man who has staked out his position as the heir to Ronald Reagan. While the campaign has moved away from him now, as he says on p. 220: "The difficulty of the challenge is usually proportionate ot the reward."

This book is Great!

I am 17 and this book is the first book I have read front to back. Mr. Quayle is a great man. I hope people read this book and think about message when it comes time to vote. Dan is the most qualified and the most conservative! Read the book and learn his views.

Dan's the Man. Too Bad GOP Has Already Chosen Its Nominee

This book establishes beyond any doubt that Vice President Dan Quayle is a man of ideas, vision, principles and conviction. And he is far more experienced and philosophically mature than George Bush Jr. But Quayle faces three major obstacles: (1) a relentless media; (2) his boyish looks (gray hair notwithstanding); and the Republican Establishment. Quayle is a solid conservative and nothing would give me greater pleasure than to see him come from behind to become the frontrunner in the GOP race. But such an outcome seems less likely with each passing day. I wish Quayle and his family well and hope that he continues to speak out on behalf of conservative values.

This is the man that should be President on Jan.20,2001

This book reveals what the Republican party should be about in, not just the Year 2000 Presidential race, but every year. The Vice President not only articulates what he believes and is for, but also accurately defines what the opposition believes. This is a must read for all in the GOP before, not only the 2000 elections, but before the August poll in Iowa. If George W. Bush can not measure up to these beliefs and articulate them, then send your check to Quayle 2000!

Quayle delineates the issues of the 2000 race.

This is a must read for anyone planning to vote in 2000. Former Vice-President Dan Quayle spells out the important issues facing the middle class for the 21st century. From values to civil rights to foreign policy, He clearly reveals his views and exposes the liberal agenda of the "New Aristocracy" or "Opinion Elitists." The book was well organized, well documented, and read quickly.
