About this title

Synopsis

It s an exciting time. America is in crisis, but change is within our power. The issues matter more than ever this election year. But in a world of sound bytes and deliberate misinformation and a political scene that is literally colored by a partisan divide blue vs. red how does the average educated American find a reliable source that s free of political spin? What You Think You Should Know About Politics . . . But Don t breaks it all down, issue by issue, explaining who stands for what, and why whether it s tax cuts, outsourcing, the Kyoto Protocol, or drilling for oil in Alaska. If you re a Democrat, a Republican, or somewhere in between, it s the perfect book to brush up on a single topic or read through to get a deeper understanding of the often-mucky world of American politics.
