"The year was 1994. Republicans had been in the minority in the U.S. House for 40 years. House Republicans introduced a bold idea - tell the American people what they would do if elected - by making a "Contract" with America. Led by Reps. Newt Gingrich and Dick Armey, the Contract with America helped propel the Republicans to victory in the 1994 elections and become the majority party in the U.S. House for the first time in 40 years."
"Every political party that wishes to guide America's future should be required to assemble a treatise such as this. The Contract with America is a bold and fresh plan for dealing with the problems that plague us -over-taxation, over-regulation, poverty, welfare, failing public schools, violence, budget deficits, and an out-of-control legal system. Many of these problems have been around for decades, with most attempts to resolve them rooted in the liberal philosophy of government knows best. Yet, after forty years of liberal experimentation and spending trillions of dollars, the only real change is that we now have a horrendously oversized federal bureaucracy with a price tag that stifles economic growth. The Contract with America recognizes the failure of the liberal tax-and-spend philosophy and realizes that it is time to try a new approach. The Contract provides the essential plan for dealing with these core problems/issues, except the solutions are rooted in a conservative philosophy where maximum freedom and individual responsibility are at the core. This book is must reading for conservatives who wish to look into the mind of perhaps this country's most brilliant conservative visionary, Newt Gingrich. Liberals should probably also read this book in order to dispense with the myths and misinformation that they have accepted wholesale from a media biased against the conservative ideas contained in The Contract."
