Alfonse D'Amato

"Everyone enjoyed the evening immensely. So many people told me immediately after the program, and for days afterward, everywhere I went I bumped into people who told me how much they enjoyed your presentation. Transcending the 'knee jerk' partisan responses we so often hear, alerted our members to the possibilities inherent in public service when elected officials seek to exemplify by their work a true sense of the common good."

--Bruce S. Block, Temple Sinai of Bergen County
