 Disappointed June 16, 2008

I used to watch Jesse on Monday Night WWF Wrestling. He was co-announcer with Gorilla Monsoon. Jesse was the 'Bad Guy' advocate. He wore a beret, feathers and shades and I thought he was pretty cool. I've semi-followed him since. I thought it was great when he was elected governor. In all fairness i'll say that this book was very readable and well written and the guy has a lot of good ideas. HOWEVER........
He brags about his part in Trade with China which has done nothing but hurt this country AS A WHOLE. Our industrial base is shipped to china,,,they become rich selling us their products, they buy steel, food, and fuel and all the prices skyrocket for Americans. Of course if you are a Pro Wrestler, Talk Show Host, or a Politician you don't have to worry about your job being shipped off to China.
His part on Mohammed Ali was 'touching' but how can a Vietnam Vet respect the guy. He was a DRAFT DODGER. That is an insult to Vietnam Vets,,black and white. Lots of guys didn't want to go for lots of reasons.....BUT THEY WENT. If you respect Ali, why not respect all the guys that bailed out to Canada, and all the other ways to beat the draft. How about Jane Fonda??? I was expecting some big recitation on her,,,after all,,she believed in what she did...
He has a picture of Che Guevara in his house,,,and he sounded like a kid that just saw Santa Clause when he met with Castro. Hey,,,those guys were the same Communists we were fighting all those years,,,along with China. They murdered millions and millions of people. They were bad guys then and they are bad guys now. You can tell alot about a person by the people that he respects. And it dosen't take a rocket scientist, Sherlock Holmes, or Fidel Castro to figure out that there was something funky about the JFK assasination. I think it hurt his feelings because RFK jr got to spend 4 hours with Castro and Jesse only got an hour.
I thought Jesse was going to be like a BREATH OF FRESH AIR,,,but from the book there is just another self-serving politician wearing a tie-dyed t-shirt, a dew rag and feathers.
Jesse is probably a good guy,,He'd be fun to party with,,,and if I ever had the chance to vote for him,,,I would,,,just because he's not ANOTHER PENCIL-NECK POLITICIAN,,, but after reading the book, I can't figure out why Jesse would want to have a Revolution,,, he has it made in the shade as it is...

Jesse, you're right about almost everything except immigration.
Illegal immigration is destroying the U.S. and legal immigration must be lowered if not ended completely...especially from the 3rd world.
Everything else I agreed with. You're almost up to par...keep researching the truth behind the invasion of our nation.

Informative when it came to reviewing his life and what happened during his governorship. Didn't expect a biography but that's basically what it is.
There were opinions and ideas that I agree with, especially the idiot war on drugs.
Not sure if the title of the book fits what was written. Disappointed that there were several typographical errors that distracted one.
