About This Book
A Wall Street Journal âbestseller, Republican Ed Goeas and Democrat Celinda Lake present political strategies to resolve national and civil tensions.
A Question of Respect speaks to voters who are tired of a political environment that ends in immovable stalemate, grounded by a political party's voter base without addressing solutions or attempting to understand the opposing side. With more than thirty years of their joint Battleground Poll exploring the concerns of the American public, Ed and Celinda reveal that only through mutual respect will the nation be able to heal its divisions.
"In providing a roadmap to respect and bipartisanship, liberal Lake and conservative Goeas offer up a very personal lesson for all of us on the final page. In acknowledging how their politically divided relationship changed over the two-year writing project, they basically said that time and listening were the best medicine.... Theirs is not only a cure for what ails Washington, but maybe the slave to our divided nation, packed in a powerful and concise read. Bravo." âPaul Bedard, Washington Secrets columnist for the Washington Examiner
"A very good book by very good people about a very good country in very bad times. I could not put it down. Get copies for everyone you know, especially those with whom you've stopped communicating." âMary Matalin, American political consultant
"Ed and Celinda, two experienced veterans of political combat, have written a thoughtful examination of where the problems lie, and what we can do about them. It's not a solution, that's up to us, but it's an invaluable roadmap that each of us should carry." âGeneral Stan McChrystal (Ret.)
