Against All Odds

A Life of Beating the Odds

De: Scott Brown

Narrado por: Scott Brown

Against All Odds is the extraordinary personal story of the man who rose up to meet the challenge of terrific opposition and become one of America's most promising new political figures—Senator Scott Brown. Brown is famous for succeeding popular Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy after Kennedy’s death in 2010—but, as he reveals in a compelling memoir reminiscent of Sarah Palin’s Going Rogue and Clarence Thomas’s My Grandfather’s Son, his experiences with struggle and achievement go back a lifetime.

I admire you and respect you!

Mr. Brown, i cannot find the exact words to express how i feel about your hard life. Listening to your experiences brought tears to my eyes because it brought so many memories of what i went through during my infancy. Since i opened my eyes to life i always had someone guy trying fundle me, rape me, or undress infront of me. The hardest is, it included my dad. I know politics has nothing to do with your book but i have to say, i call myself a democrat, but, i admire you even when you're a republican. You have my fullest admiration and a place in my heart. I wish there were more men like you in the world, it would totally be a different world. I'm a 57 years old latina who had a very hard life during my young years in my country, very poor to the point of carrying a five gallon bucket of clean water on my head to use at home for all our needs. It would bring a lot of tears in my children's eyes if i ever wrote a book about my life since they have only seen the good side of me. My faith, my love for life and my conviction that there was a light in the other side of the tunnel has me where i am now. Your name will never be erased from my mind Mr. Brown. You are in the group of my favorite heroes. May God bless you. Sincerely, Magdalena Gomez Solorzano

EGO!

I'm the greatest, he says. After reading this book I would not vote for him. I'm hoping a moderate Republican comes along who truly cares about the whole country.
