Why didn't we think of this before? Jul 23, 2007
By Roger R. Rowe
R.C.E.P. sheds new light on old bureaucrats. Using humor and plain common sense, Favaron makes us all ask, as citizens, "Why didn't we think of that before?" Using unorthodox methods, she goes straight to the heart of the matter and shares simple and effective ideas to fix the complex problems our current politicians are ignoring. The complacency and impotence felt by so many, when it comes to government, gets a shot in the arm when people unite and realize their enormous power to make things better. Bureaucracy beware! A must read for citizens of all ages.

A new view that will shake things up! Aug 16, 2007
By K. Olson

What happens when American voters, space aliens, and one take-charge wife and mother collude to get the country back on the right track? Favaron takes us on a fun, fantastical journey to the White House alongside an average citizen-cum-president who has a few straightforward ideas about how to solve the mess politicians have created. This book doesn't play it safe, and it certainly gets you thinking!

Fantastic Read! Feb 21, 2008
By Lindsey Stahley
I'm not a fan of politics, and I really enjoyed this book! The part with the aliens was my favorite because it, like the rest of the book, took a serious political issue and made it into something more accessible to the average reader. I really enjoyed the way that the author turned even the most boring (or so I always thought) political issues and turned them into a fun, entertaining story that easily keeps your attention from beginning to end. I would highly recommend this book to anyone, most especially those who think that politics can't be interesting--give this book a chance to prove you wrong!

So entertaining to read! Nov 05, 2007

I thought this book was going to be about serious politics, and I was surprised to find out it's a lot more than that. I think the younger generations have no interest for what's going on with our government because it's so hard to understand. But this book simplifies everything so it's easy to understand, and also brings up issues that should be more of a priority to our people and our government. There is also a lot of humor throughout the book that makes you laugh out loud, well at least I did. Lastly, it's easy to read because it is in diary form, so if you have to put the book down for a little bit, it's easy to get back involved from where you left off. Great job Patricia Favaron - I hope to read more of your future writings!!

Great read! Oct 29, 2007

I enjoyed reading this book. The author's thoughts are conveyed in a simple way. Her ideas are seen from another perspective, our very own: a citizen willing to make many changes.I can relate to this great book, and Im sure many thoughts just like her's have crossed the reader's mind at some point or another.
