Ben Shapiro

Ben proved to be one of the most engaging speakers we have had in our four-year history of running the Congressional Fellowship program. Ben was able to provide unique insight and invaluable assistance on ways to discuss key issues with liberals.

After battling in the trenches of liberal college student press, Ben Shapiro has emerged as a forceful and unequivocal writer to bring views that are underrepresented in mass media.

Ben's Shapiro's writing is smart, informative and incisive. He is wise beyond his years without losing the refreshing fearlessness of youth.

on "Brainwashed": "Ben Shapiro provides eye-popping details from the front lines--as a political science major at UCLA, as an embattled student journalist. He has also done research. The result is all the info any counter-revolutionary might need.

With "Brainwashed" we get a sophisticated and firsthand critique of the university as an institution of ideological propaganda for the left wing, secular world view. And the book delivers--confirming our worst fears about modern academia.

That invigorating breeze from the west is Benjamin Shapiro, whose crisp commentary proves that wisdom sometimes comes with youth, too.

on "Brainwashed": "[A] book that has won attention even amid the flood of political tracts from both left and right that is saturating the best-seller lists . . . [Shapiro is] intellectually precocious and extremely confident . . ."

Just when you were about to abandon any hope for America's future, along comes Ben Shapiro. Somehow he's managed to arrive at young adulthood with his common sense intact. Maybe there is hope after all.

Ben Shapiro's courage and insight should provide inspiration not only for other young conservatives on campus, but also for their parents. His book is a welcome sign that all is not lost for this new generation.

on "Brainwashed": "[M]eticulously documented . . . his book has an immediacy that can't be matched by authors who were students a generation ago . . . One need not entirely endorse Mr. Shapiro's worldview to admire his pluck.
