“Left Winger - A Conservative's Guide to Enlightenment" is a book everyone interested in politics should read. Balon Bradley’s foray into the political fray is thoughtful, funny and easy to read. He discusses very volatile issues in a temperate manner, and delivers his message confidently but not dogmatically. After you read the book, you will think "here is a guy I would love to meet to talk about politics." His message is real, universal and it is fun. He succeeds in showing his readers how we are not all that different in most of our goals for our families and our country. Whoever thought a book that discusses politics, religion, abortion, taxes, drugs and crime could be interesting, enlightening and fun to read? Balon Bradley succeeded with "Left Winger," as it is all of these. Read it. You will like it.
