Synopsis
The Internet is emerging as the single most powerful communications tool of the decade, and its impact on politics is a revolution in the making. This book explains how the political process can be entered using a modem and a PC. Without taking sides on any issue, it explains communicating and accessing information on the Internet. This revised edition includes current discussions of on-line fundraising and voting (such as the Jesse Ventura gubernatorial campaign) and the Year 2000 campaign, raises questions about the state of American politics, and offers real-world strategies that have an impact on local, state, and federal government.
