I enjoyed reading these suggested practical solutions. My rating 4.5.

The book identifies clear domestic policy issues (not much on trade and foreign issues)), setting forth specific candidate proposals and stated positions from the left and the right. The authors then propose some viable solutions. Whether the reader agrees fully with the solutions, there is open discussion and responsible and workable compromises. The guide also offers questions directed specifically to President Trump, questions directed specifically to the Democratic presidential candidates and then questions for all of the candidates.

The presentation is well documented and provides open views for citizens and journalists who may have a sincere interest in seeking to focus on clear candidate positions. Although The Ultimate Guide is not a one-stop resource and doesn’t always find a place of common ground, it is at least an effort to open discussions on some of the issues.

I had never heard of the No Labels group but I appreciate this approach. I did not find any clear, gross bias, either toward the left or right. Too often the public is presented with clearly biased positions from authors or news outlets who are not willing to allow open dialogue. This book is a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend this as an excellent resource while watching debates and preparing to vote in 2020.

This is an excellent guide for the voter who wants to know the election issues. Today, with all the partisanship around us, it often difficult to sift through everything pundits say to find out what the basic issues are, what the issues are all about and get some ideas about how each side feels about them or, at least, what they have put out on them. This book provides just that. I may not agree with all the authors have said in the book, but, all in all, it is quite comprehensive and does present both sides. Because of this, I am grateful NetGalley provided me the opportunity to read this book. I know I will keep it handy as a reference as the country marches along to the November election. I personally think more people should read the book to get a good sense of what to consider. I was largely unfamiliar with the organization that put it out before I read the book, but I will now look out for them as I read the news/Internet.

Great look into the issues our country is experiencing today. Looked at from a bipartisan viewpoint, the ideas could go a long way to solving our problems. But, alas, unfortunately people find themselves only as hard right or hard left, and aren't able to bend at all. Maybe, if people took time to actually read this book, and put away their preformed talking points, we could actually solve things! Wishful thinking.

Written by members of the group No Labels which pledges to encourage bipartisanship in Congress, this book takes some of the hot button issues of today and explains how they propose to fix the problem. Also included are questions to ask President Trump and the democratic nominees about those issues.
I think the book is well researched and well thought out. The policy positions are interesting takes but this book will definitely not appeal to those hard right and hard left people. This is definitely a book for the moderates out there.

"The Ultimate Guide to the 2020 Election" by Ryan Clancy and Margaret White (of No Labels) was an extremely fascinating read. I have heard of No Labels before in that I knew it was an organization/think tank that aims to try and bridge bipartisanship in an extremely partisan environment in our government. Reading the brief introduction of what the organization is all about, I got a better idea of the organization's mission statement as well as some of the initiatives they overlook.

In terms of the book itself, both authors cover some of the biggest hot button issues that will loom over the 2020 election. The book covers issues such as healthcare, immigration, climate change, infrastructure, etc. as well as provide what both the Left and the Right sides of the aisle provide in terms of a solution or approach to each respective situation. It details out each of the side's approach and point out some of the flaws that each stance will take. What I did enjoy is that it doesn't fall in the pattern of a current events book in just highlighting the problems but also try to provide a solution that both sides can agree on. In addition to all of that, the authors also list potential questions that can be addressed to both the sitting president, the democratic hopefuls, and for both candidates during the main election (which I'm sure is a way to encourage discourse among the people who decide to read this book and try and submit said questions in the upcoming debates *hint hint*).

Some of the bipartisan solutions they provide will certainly not rub people the right way but it certainly is just one solution. There are certainly some bold statements, I feel, in terms of solutions that I may not agree with but it's a more concrete solution that I have seen in a long time.

I highly recommend this for people to read since it really makes the issues at hand more accessible for someone who may feel like a lot of the talk would go over their head.

Compelling read that attempts to find bipartisan solutions to some of the most polarizing issues currently facing the country. The authors explore the basics of each topic from the point of view from the left and the right, and then finds their common ground solution. You may not agree with the solution or either political leaning, but it is a good exploration to civilly review issues from all sides. Readers might not embrace the middle ground approach, but they will gain some additional understanding from this book.

"The Ultimate Guide to the 2020 Election" from No Labels, written by Ryan Clancy and Margaret White was a fascinating read about moderate politics moving the country away from tribalism and to a place of compromise that would be best for the United States.

There was lots of topics covered including healthcare, energy and climate change, infrastructure, "big tech" regulation, immigration, and other topics. There were lots of "common sense" policies that would really help both sides come to an agreement that would benefit the whole country.

I received this as an eBook from Diversion Books via NetGalley in exchange for an honest and unbiased review of the title. I did not receive any compensation from either company. The opinions expressed herein are completely my own.

This was actually pretty interesting. These authors are committed to finding bipartisan solutions for some of our big problems as a nation. They find fault with both parties, and some of the solutions they suggest really might work. I liked the questions they came up with for candidates from both parties. They are all legitimate questions. However, the fact that it is a guide to the 2020 election, they mostly ignore the fact that the current president is a madman who cannot be reasoned with. If the president in office today were George w. Bush (or Jeb Bush! or Ted Cruz!), this would all feel a bit more reasonable. But they have their hearts and minds in the right place.
