The book was really a fiction novel based on the author's life - definitely not an autobiography.

Oprah, and the publisher, were duped into thinking this was a legitimate autobiography, even though they should have known better IMO. (Especially the publisher.)

The other reason recommending the book was stupid, again, IMO, is because it's an absolutely awful book. I've read excerpts. The prose is hideous and the grammar is non-existant. It's not exactly book club quality.

Aaaaanyways. Presidential candidates. Yeah.

I hope the Democrats field someone competant this time.




Abortion has a middle ground!? What is it?
There really isn't any middle ground ; but when in MIDDLE TN, a pro-choice Democrat is a non-entity. Even TN Dems tend to be conservative on the issues of abortion and gay marriage...if they don't, they're either: from Memphis (as Ford is), or a non-entity that nobody knows about.

...I actually like Ford. I'm sure he's middling with us, but he seems to be very different from his dad and uncle (both caught with their hands in the cookie jar ). A black girl from my church (she's Orthodox now, but her dad is a Baptist preacher ), knows him- apperantly the two families have known each other for a while...
He also bought a book from a Catholic bookstore (he's NOT Catholic)...and guess what, they don't exactly sell Marxist propaganda there...now THAT tells you something... , IMO.

But I like Bob Corker too...made his way to the top from, well Eight Thousand and a pickup truck, as he put it.
