As Carly Fiorina launches her book tour presidential campaign, voters should take a look at these testimonials about what Carly Fiorina's "leadership" would mean for America:

But wait, there's more:

"A consummate self-promoter, Fiorina was busy pontificating on the lecture circuit and posing for magazine covers while her company floundered. She paid herself handsome bonuses and perks while laying off thousands of employees to cut costs. The merger Fiorina orchestrated with Compaq in 2002 was widely seen as a failure. She was ousted in 2005." -CNBC Portfolio's list of worst CEOs of all time<http://www.cnbc.com/id/30502091/page/3>

"The stock price dropped by 50% only to rally 10% on the announcement of her firing. She fired 28,000 people before she herself was fired, departing with the 21 million dollar golden parachute that is financing her campaign." -Arianna Packard, granddaughter of the late HP co-founder David Packard<http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0310/34086.html>

"For many of her former HP colleagues, President Carly Fiorina is a disturbing idea." -CNN<http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/22/politics/carly-fiorina-hp/>

"She did damage to a great company and I don't want to see her do damage to a great country." -Jason Burnett, the grandson of the late HP co-founder David Packard and Mayor of Carmel, California<http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/22/politics/carly-fiorina-hp/>

"She walked into a fundamentally sound, healthy, vibrant company and had a disastrous tour of duty. She sliced shareholder wealth in half and had a reign of terror that was infamous for its scapegoating, finger-pointing culture." -Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, a professor at the Yale School of Management<http://www.realclearpolitics.com/news/ap/politics/2009/Nov/05/fiorina_s_record_at_hp_will_be_key_to_senate_race.html>

"Call her the anti-Steve Jobs. During her 1999-2005 tenure as CEO of Hewlett-Packard, Carly Fiorina proved that she could reverse decades of geek goodwill and alienate customers like no one else. She oversaw the spin-off of HP's well-respected instruments and medical equipment business, outsourced its beloved calculator division, then issued 7,000 pink slips. Under Fiorina's tenure, HP brought in more profits from printer ink than PCs." -InfoWorld in their rankings of the worst tech flops off all time<http://www.infoworld.com/article/2642687/operating-systems/tech-s-all-time-top-25-flops.html?page=2>
