most influential book of the times

THIS BOOK COULD SWING THE ELECTION! Just when you thought you were down with all the impossible-sounding idealistic liberal and progressive day-dreamers, here comes this ACTION PACKED book on how to ACTUALLY MAKE CHANGE! Coming from renowned underground and grassroots activists who normally shun the electoral system, now they convince and inspire us to work within the system by telling actual success stories of how people made substantial progressive change by swinging local to national elections. It is an easy read, really fun, quick, quippy and exciting. Definitely not long and boring politics book. This has a special appeal to youth to stand up and it will give you a lot of ideas to chew on and probably feel pretty good about. GET IT!

Maybe I'm biased

Ok, ok so i'm a co-editor of this book but i also have to say that i just reread the whole thing altogether for the first time since we sent it to the printer and the hard work that all these writers and authors put into it just blows me away. Its a fantastic, touching book - you'll laugh and cry and then become a voter organizer in your neighborhodd, you'll go to indyvoter.org and sign up, you'll ask for it in every bookstore you enter, you'll buy it for friends and family, you'll sleep with it under your pillow. FOR REAL. Get your copy y'all. Do not sleep on the electoral revolution!!

Much better than Prozac

This book is fantastic -- entertaining, enlightening, and most of all, inspiring. It's an incredible lift for anyone who is feeling frustrated, discouraged or depressed about the current political situation. Much better than Prozac. I loved the user friendly format, stories I could relate to, and the humor, especially the wacky mini-interviews. Buy one for yourself and 10 for your friends. It's that good.

A MUST READ FOR ELECTION YEAR - IT WILL INSPIRE YOU!!!

It's easy to feel discouraged. Every day we learn something new about how our government has consistently lied to the American public. It's easy to feel powerless. But after reading this book -- and learning the amazing stories of everyday people around this country who stood up for what they believed in -- I swear, you will be inspired. Those in power want to stay in power, and one of their most effective tactics is making the majority of us who want to see regime change feel apathetic. This book is sure-fire antidote. Read it and pass it on.
