What you should know about politics-- but don't : a nonpartisan guide to the issues that matter / Jessamyn Conrad ; with a new introduction by Martin Garbus.

Conrad, Jessamyn, (author.).

Summary:

"In a world of sound bites, deliberate misinformation, and a political scene colored by the blue versus red partisan divide, how does the average educated American find a reliable source that's free of political spin? What 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 the economy, income inequality, Obamacare, foreign policy, education, immigration, or climate change. 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 murky world of American politics."-- back cover.
