Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2015
enjoyed the book very much, delivered as expected
Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2003
All too often, it is all too easy for Washington insiders to fall prey to common opinion of their peers and colleagues. Carlson bucks this trend by inviting us into actual dialogues taking place as decisions are made and implemented. Her book allows us insight into the workings of Washington and the minds of the very people responsible for decisions and policies affecting the direction of our country and our lives. A must read for those who wonder what drives our leaders. Like it or not.

I just finished reading Margaret Carlson's new book, Anyone Can Grow Up-How George Bush and I Made it to the White House. The book, quite simply, is extraordinary. Her insights are phenomenal, her character analysis insightful, the chapters about her family life are incredibly heartwarming.
The work is superbly written. In fact, I enjoyed the book so much, I'm going to reread it. Her writing skills and her observations about people and events are sheer magic.

This book can be summed up in one word: weak. If you've ever been out to lunch or at a party with someone who wouldn't stop talking about themselves and condescendingly giving you their opinion on every single topic that comes up, then you've already, in essence, read this book. I think the fact that, as of this writing, there are exactly 7,572 other books ranked higher than this one despite her media friends constantly hyping her book tells you all you need to know about how interesting this book is. I'm upset that I spent $$ dollars on it. There's nothing new here you haven't heard her say on Imus or Hardball of any one of a number of places she seems to always be. Believe me, I love politics, but this was a BIG disappointment.

Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2003
I thought this might be interesting or have some insight but it is really just a tired rehash of her time magazine columns along with a few chapters of original material. Making things worse is her 'Jayson Blairing' of the facts. She misquotes people so horribly that it totally distorts the meaning and it is done in such an obviously bias way that there is no question about her motives. If you really want to know about the president you are better off with Molly Ivins than this.

I thought this book would be only interesting about Washington life, but I found this is a book that is truly about life. Everyone knows Margaret Carlson from CNN and Time Magazine, but you will see a whole different side of her as you go through this book.

This woman's job is to write editorials on the day's major issues. Unfortunately she is clueless about those things, happening in our nation and world, which are important.
We have a name for people who will publish biased, banal, garbage to make a buck. We call them mediawhores.
By the way, the way Bush made it to the White house was by stealing an election. And look what a mess he has made with his squaters presidency.
Anyone who claims to be left or center left poltically, as Carlson does, should be able to say that quite clearly.
