Is there an 'Apprentice'?

The only show I watch on TV has come to be "The Apprentice" with all of its pomp and circumstances. The Donald truly carries the show with his personality alone. Loved or hated, he cannot be ignored.

This series' potential apprentices, though, seem rather incompetent. Are these the best and brightest we have to offer? By about midway through this 'interview', my wife and I had decided that none of this class were worthy of being hired by Trump in contrast to the previous edition which seemed to have at least 3 if not more worthy candidates. Trump should have just fired all of these candidates and started with a clean slate. MARKETING is the key just about every week, and none of these candidates seem extremely blessed in the skills of marketing. What do lawyers know about marketing unless they are accustomed to ambulance chasing and posting pictures of themselves on billboards?

So will Trump take a lawyer, a Mary Kay sales pro, a shoe shine entrepreneur, or a real estate entrepeneur? I'm going to stick with Kendra, the real estate entrepreneur.

Hello!
I'm sorry - I don't know anything about the Apprendice but you might have information I would like.. I'm looking for a book called "Light on the Path" by Heinrich Bitzer, which is unfortunately out of print. I did a search on google and your site came up.. you wouldn't happen to know where it might be possible to buy the book? This might seem very strange - and indeed it is, I'm an icelandic woman asking a stranger in Alabama US to help me.. the wonders of the internet I guess, all this trouble for my husband who really wants this book :)
Thank you and God bless.
Best regards
