Here's what others have to say about Fred: "An independent public servant. A successful businessman and entrepreneur. A committed husband and father. Fred Smith is a leader ready to face the challenges facing North Carolina." - Rick Perry, Governor of Texas "In an era when so many politicians talk in trite, carefully scripted sound bytes, this candid offering introduces Fred Smith, a truly unique—thoroughly conservative—North Carolina leader." - Senator Richard Stevens "In this world of sound bytes and photo ops, we generally hear what politicians want us to think they think. We see the polished veneer of a political candidate and rarely get to the heartwood. Fred Smith is different. Fred is willing to carve away the layers and let you look deep inside.

A Little Extra Effort is the life story of Fred Smith. Who he is; where he came from; what values he was raised on; and what he learned from his struggles and successes in a life that has encompassed law, farming, business and public service. So, when Fred gets around to telling you what he thinks, you know two things: (1) that he really means it, and (2) why it's important to him. You come to know that when Fred says he will do something, you can take it to the bank.

A Little Extra Effort is less like a book and more like a kitchen table conversation with a guy who is passionately committed to hard work, and doing what's right -- for people and for his beloved home state of North Carolina. Find a comfortable place to spend a little time getting to know Fred Smith. You may not agree with all his ideas -- but you will be glad, encouraged, and inspired to have met him."
