Contrary to popular belief, politics is not a dirty word! But during any given election over a third of the adult population in the United States doesn't vote. If you're part of that population that is intimidated and frustrated by the political process, the issues involved, or the candidates, Politics For Dummies(R) is your key to the colorful world of politics. You'll learn how things really work in politics and how your voice can make a difference. You'll get the inside scoop on how and where to vote, how to choose a party, what makes a good candidate, what special interest groups do, and where all the campaign money goes. This book cuts through all of the political jargon and provides practical, easy-to-understand information on everything from campaigns to polls to the presidential election.
Inside, you'll discover how to:
Register to vote -- with the voter registration card included!
Choose a political party that's right for you
Select a candidate to support with confidence
Contact your national, state, or local representative
Detect and know when to ignore negative campaigns and mud-slinging
Tap into the Internet's political Web sites
Recognize when the media (and you) are being manipulated by politicians
Take action, get involved, and have fun in politics!
