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.
