Resumen del Editor

America has become a gerontocracy - and it’s showing its age. Our future depends on young people running for and winning elected office. Yet despite historically high interest in politics among the young, few are entering the halls of power. Young candidates at all levels of government need a new model.

A political newcomer, Henry Bouchot, shocked the political establishment in Richard Nixon’s hometown of Whittier, California, defeating a nine-term incumbent to become the youngest member in the history of the Whittier City Council in 2018. In A Millennial’s Guide, Henry shows how he harnessed his business education and experience in the Marines to create an unbeatable campaign. He goes beyond just the nuts and bolts of campaigning and describes how to make running both an unforgettable experience and an unstoppable one.

Excellent How to Guide WIth a Storytelling Format

As a fellow Marine Veteran, and someone who is (was) interested in running for office, I decided to listen. From the opening lines, the writing, done in a storytelling narrative memoir, weaved into a "how to" book, left me captivated and wanting to listen constantly. The unique format provided me with, not only the nuts and bolts approach to running for local office, but something unexpected entirely- a great story! At the end of every chapter, Mr. Bouchot provided a detailed, yet concise snapshot of the key takeaways that a perspective candidate could practically apply. Furthermore, the author provided personal and professional anecdotal viewpoints that drove the objective guide portions home. This audio book demystified the process of running for local office, and compared to similar books and how to guides out there, is vastly superb. Excellent job, Semper Fi!
