Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

My fellow Americans,

President John F. Kennedy once famously said, "Hey, is that blond intern eighteen yet?" He also said, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."

We've changed a lot since JFK asked us all to pitch in. We've become a nation of narcissistic, yoga-mat-toting, service-dog-having, absentee dads and gluten-free, hand-wringing, hypochondriac moms of overcaffeinated (yet somehow still lazy) twerking tweens. And our government is an inept bureaucracy incapable of doing anything except getting in our wallets and in our way.

We've got to get it together, America.

That is why I, Adam Carolla, hereby declare myself Candidate Carolla. The tome you hold in your hands is a statement of my intent to whip our country back into fighting shape, to eliminate the "what are you going to do for me?" mentality that has invaded our country.

President Me is my manifesto, my vision for a better place . . . free of Big Government, barefoot fliers, lazy hipsters who'd rather "Occupy" than work, and the other things that are bringing our country down. With my cabinet appointees, my list of worthy and necessary presidential ManDates, and tons of great ideas for fixing our health care, education, energy, and even national parks systems . . . behold an America we can be proud of. The America I see in my head.

You're welcome in advance.

Your future leader,
Adam

This is everything you've come to love and expect from Adam Carolla. I got the audiobook at 3:00am and listened to it straight through. It's fantastic -- witty, cynical, thoughtful -- a hilarious and irreverent look at our society, brilliant and caustic insights into where we've gone astray, and this comedian's clever and facetious ideas on how to fix it. It's not so nearly as political as you might think (or even as the introduction might suggest). It's simply a wonderfully amusing and humorous book for everyone. HIGHLY recommended.

I got this book in the Audible audiobook format. Corolla delivers an excellent performance (always love when authors narrate their own books). This book is a nice length (6 hours) and feels like a lengthly one of Corolla's podcasts. He reads the book, gets passionate about the topic, and starts ranting a bit outside of the actual text. Always entertaining.

Since Corolla is reading his own book, he gets to add in whatever he wants as he's reading. He'll laugh, sigh, yell, and add emotion to what he's reading.

Corolla gets a little preachy and off topic in some chapters, but overall he delivers an excellent performance and makes me wish he'd actually run for president.

'In fifty years we'll all be chicks' is still his best book, but this one is the second best in my opinion.

Adam is great. I Have been to multiple live shows, listen to his podcasts religiously and love Mangria . that's why i felt a little let down. the book is entertaining but.. It really is just a recap of all his rants on his podcasts. His first two books were fantastic. They were fresh, insightful and hilarious. If you have listened to his podcasts for the past year, you've already read this book..

Surprisingly well written, and very funny. The theme is that hard work pays off and that the country is going down the toilet because we reward ourselves just for breathing rather than excelling.

Listen, Adam is crass, crude, and a bit crazy!

But he has the balls to speak his mind in a land of neutered males and outspoken females.

Is he controversial? YES!

Is he over the top? YES!

Is he right? ABSO-FRIGGIN-LUTELY!

Everything he says will one day come to fruition and this book is a manifest for the future.

I didn't think i would like this book, but I got my first laugh out loud moment 5 minutes into it, then I was hooked. His humor is often coarse, but many of his observations ring true in my mind. I also liked the way the book was organized. I am pleased that I bought the book.

Any fan of Thomas Paine, Andrew Carnegie, or Deacon Jones will appreciate this straight talk from wildly popular podcaster Adam Carolla. His no nonsense approach pulls no punches and provides plenty of laughs.
