"The Leadership Genius of George W. Bush" is available for ONE CENT on Amazon. Hardcover
Several available at that price.

That must be so humiliating!

Favorable Reviews

"Finally, a fun-to-read book about George W. Bush that details the secrets to his success!"
–Ken Blanchard, coauthor, The One Minute Manager®

"Political journalists love graduate student intelligence, the ability to make clever allusions in seminars, and in 1999—2000 they hassled George W. Bush for not having it. They didnt realize what this book succinctly displays: that the President has something far more important–CEO intelligence, the ability to ask tough questions, garner essential information, and make discerning decisions. Such intelligence can be fostered and honed, and this book shows how."
–Dr. Marvin Olasky, Professor of Journalism, The University of Texas at Austin, and Editor in Chief, World magazine

"Put aside politics and read this book right away for its true wisdom and concrete advice about leadership. The authors have done a brilliant job explaining the leadership style that makes this President so effective. Any leader can learn from the philosophy, strategy, and tactics in this book."
–Bruce Tulgan, founder of RainmakerThinking, Inc., author, Winning the Talent Wars

"Thompson and Ware make a compelling case that this President who ‘loves to be underestimated has a highly effective approach to leadership that is humane, direct, and at times, truly transformational. Many in business today could benefit from reading this book."
–David M. Abshire, President, Center for the Study of the Presidency

"Carolyn Thompson and James Ware have it right . . . leadership is about what one is, not just what one does. About character, not just charisma . . . about credibility, not just credentials. This timely account of The Leadership Genius of George W. Bush will truly encourage and inspire readers."
–Commissioner Robert A. Watson, Retired National Commander, The Salvation Army, U.S.A.

1. Yikes!
I'll save the penny. I am hoping that money might be worth something in the future.

2. Apparently, they tried to put in their two cents about Bush
and found out that even at two cents, positive opinions of Bush are overpriced.

:D

5. A cheap whore is two bits, and advice from Bush is just one bit.
I see.

6. I thought maybe it was one of those books that's blank inside...
There have been a few published, like "The Wit and Wisdom of Spiro Agnew" and "What Men Understand about Women" and like that... gag gift items.

13. I read these blurbs and I squirm. Where is the character of the reviewers.
They must be making some money out of the right/reich wing movement.

14. Now I'm getting curious about what it says in the book
Unless it is blank, it is a compendium and hallucinations and lies.

15. GREAT! Now I can afford to send a copy to my BIL who thinks W will be
recognised as one of our greatest Presidents "one day"...one cent is a fair price for that, IMO.

There ought to be a copy in the GWB Presidential Liberry, too...

17. I don't need to read it. His genius is on display for all
in his ownership of the Texas Rangers
the Oil Wells his dad bought and he ran straight into the ground

In fact, I would like someone to show me any of his successes as a CEO
