In these last weeks leading up to the 2016 U.S. presidential election, millions of disaffected Americans still feel like they are being forced to choose between the lesser of two evils. They must cast their votes as a way to save America by blocking one candidate, rather than propelling America forward by supporting a candidate who really aligns with their values. In search of better options, these frustrated throngs are lighting up social media with the hashtag #WriteIn16. This book answers their call. #WriteIn16 A Field Guide to the 100 Most Presidential Americans speaks to every American who secretly wishes -- or openly agitates -- to vote for someone other than the two major-party candidates this November 8th. Co-authored by an east coast digital media strategist and a west coast business school professor, this book informs and stimulates conversation about the American qualities that make a person worthy to hold the most powerful and important position in the world. Using the G.R.E.A.T.© framework, this book rates the 100 American leaders who exemplify the five traits of being presidential: Global Vision, Reach, Ethics, Accomplishment, and Talent. Selected from a wide range of fields and backgrounds, the views of these would-be presidents range across the political gamut, from progressive Democrats and conservative Republicans to Greens and Independent 3rd- party candidates. From moderates and apolitical pragmatists to idealists, they all possess extraordinary qualities. We believe that voters in 2016 should feel empowered, not disenfranchised. In most states, Americans can write in a vote for someone we truly deem worthy to be president, regardless of who is on the ballot. This book will show you how and get you talking about whose name to choose. Less
