LCHS alum pens new book; "Natural Born Leader"

[February 09, 2017]  Lincoln Community High School alum, Robert L. Schmidt, son of the late Ralph H. Schmidt, has written a new book entitled "Natural Born Leader."

From Amazon:

Politics is a dirty business and it gets even dirtier when billionaire Ronald Tripp covets the Republican Presidential nomination. The Ronald's first dirty deed is to take advantage of the wandering eye of the frontrunner, Senator Bill Flowers. Bill's mistress is actually a porn star named Lola Fontaine and she was hired by The Ronald to blackmail Bill. When Bill drops out, Bill's father, former Senator George Flowers Sr., has a revelation. He'll just insert his other son George Flowers, Jr. into the race. Don Chambers, a Reagan era Republican political genius, and Martha Wilson, one of George Sr.'s executives, join George Sr. as part of the candidate's team. The team has one significant challenge. Their candidate is one of God's special creations.

Natural Born Leader follows the adventures of George Jr. as he conducts himself in the same way any first grader might. Kids say the darnedest things, and George Jr. rarely reacts the way that a Presidential candidate should. With Martha's damage control and the natural inclination of voters to believe in their candidate, George Jr. reacts just right. The Ronald is busy winning over conservatives with a show of guns, old time religion, a proposed moat to keep illegal immigrants out of the US and any other idea that can bring America back to the social norms of the 1950s. He also tries to bag George Jr. the same way he bagged his older brother. George Jr. has several close encounters with Lola.

Natural Born Leader takes America's rich, scandalous and embarrassing Presidential political history to the next level. Most Americans have long since realized that the best and the brightest rarely enter politics. This book proves that they should because in America any citizen can one day be our President.

Schmidt is a 1975 graduate of LCHS and attended and graduated from the University of Illinois. He currently resides with his wife Marcia in Coto de Caza California and is employed by Alere Diagnostics in San Diego. Schmidt will be signing his book on February 18th at Barnes and Noble in Aliso Viega. The book is also available in paperback, hardcover, or digital for Kindle through Amazon.
