"The assembly was fantastic!!!!! There were maybe 50 seats open in the auditorium that was it! He got two standing ovations and the couple questions from the crowd were really good! His speech was fantastic and it was the first time I had ever seen my classmates so quiet. I had multiple teachers, administrators, and classmates, tell me how appreciative they were of out work in bringing him in. I was more than happy with the turnout. From what I understand, this was the largest assembly my school has ever had!"

"Everything was great. What a great event. Attorney General Ashcroft was a pleasure to work with and to hear speak. He was so personable and spoke to everyone he met."

"John Ashcroft did great yesterday! He was engaging, personal and very accommodating to everything that we asked of him. He packed the room (it was standing room only) and I have only heard very good feedback!"

"Thank you for joining us last Saturday at the Bakersfield Business Conference. Your speech was superb and well received by our audience. We were fortunate indeed to have you on our program. You are truly one of the Best of the Best!"

"Not only did Mr. Ashcroft give an excellent presentation and answer a host of difficult questions, but he maintained his energy and our interest for 3 hours! We were particularly pleased that he and Mrs. Ashcroft spent time with our guests at dinner yesterday and during breakfast and lunch today and they were so charming they did not make it appear a chore. "

"Mr. Ashcroft could not have done a better job. To say he 'wowed' the audience would be an understatement. "

"Ashcroft was excellent. We were so pleased to have him as part of our NCW event last week. Great man, great speaker – I would highly recommend him to anyone."

"I just wanted to once again thank you for obtaining the services of John Ashcroft for us as a speaker. Many people thought his speech on leadership was the best ever. I did not realize that his father was a pastor and all of that fit very well within the context of his remarks as well as our organization."

"The John Ashcroft event went very well. John was energetic and enthusiastic and worked without notes. At the cocktail time the Ashcrofts were very accessible to meeting the audience and having their picture taken. A local magazine covered the photo taking. The Q & A was once again a crowd pleaser. We had many, many compliments on the program and have received several calls today. People have remarked at how accessible and natural he was."

"Your insights into the essential qualities of a leader, and the challenges you faced in the wake of 9/11 were fascinating. You have mastered a presentation style that is instructive, engaging, and entertaining. We were particularly grateful that you took the time to learn about the welding fume litigation that is rocking the industry, and share with the membership your suggestions for a defensive strategy."

"Mr. Ashcroft was very generous with us. He wanted to do all he could to make it as excellent a meeting as possible. "

""Very accommodating, funny, warm, connected well with the attendees, had a great sense of humor and a wonderful presentation."

"On behalf of the Snack Food Association, thank you for providing our membership with an insider's view of current affairs during SNAXPO 2005 in Hollywood, FL. We especially appreciated your admonition to SFA members to be active and involved in their association as a way to affect change in Washington...The gracious sharing of your time with individual members as well as touring the exhibit floor left a lasting impression on SFA. "

"I don't know how to personally thank you for such a wonderful presentation on the Harding campus. From the very time you hit the campus, you went to lunch with my office staff, the meeting you had with the American Studies Institute Board, the Presidential reception, the presentation, your very approachable but professional manner made the day a wonderful one for everybody involved. I feel that Dr. Burks was particularly taken back by your phone call before the event even began with your inquiry as to what Harding was like and how you could best prepare for your visit. That was just in my mind characteristic of the entire experience with you. I have contacted the Harry Walker Agency and said what a wonderful experience we had and have highly recommended you to speak on as many college campuses as they can possibly schedule you for. Thank you once again for a job well done. "
