Description
The 2008 campaign for President of the USA has attracted more attention and prompted more people to get out and vote in caucuses and primaries than any other. It has also been kind of crazy: the initial line-up of contenders were a black man, a woman, an Italian-American, a POW held in solitary confinement for years, a millionaire Mormon, a Latino, a bass guitar playing former preacher and a Vegan who has seen a UFO. Vote for Me reveals what it takes to become president of the biggest democracy of them all. Written by Australian journalist and News Radio presenter John Barron, who happens to be a US politics junkie, Vote for Me is a fascinating, funny and, at times frightening, look at the way the USA picks its President.
