news & reviews

"'Run is a wonderfully conceived, very cleverly carried out novel about the future of American politics. G.R. Kearney has a perfect ear for the habits and absurdities of the press and politicians, and he puts it to very good use with this alternative-reality portrayal of the path voters could take. Once I started reading I didn't stop."           - James Fallows, the Atlantic "Congress has had a miserable approval rating for years but no presidential candidate in 2012 is talking about changing how Congress works. Noa Kalakaua did in 2008.  Run is a must read for anyone who believes Congress needs reform… and for anyone who doesn’t."           - Paul Eggers, First Business News "I've worked with a number of NYT bestsellers and believe that RUN by G.R. Kearney will attract that audience. The book is about an important topic--the viability of our nation under its current form of government--and is one hell of a fun read."           - Jack W Perry, owner of 38enso and former Random House sales executive "'Run' does a wonderful job of displaying the conflicts in our professional political class structure while providing the reader with a great deal of fun in the process. Term limits ASAP-yes!            - Seymour Lotsoff, founding partner, Zeigler Lotsoff Capital Management              Read one of Mr. Lotsoff's essays on the Professional Political Class "This is a great book for anyone who's dissatisfied with the major party candidates for the White House."           - Larry Potash, WGN News "Thought provoking and entertaining... Kalakaua takes on both political parties, their presidential and congressional candidates, and the special interest groups in his attempt to pull off the greatest election upset of all time. Read RUN. You'll love it!"           - Jack Walsh , The Do Nothing Congress Blog "I highly recommend this powerful book."           -Nelson Lee Walker, TenureCorrupts.com
