Book Description
The presidential elections are everywhere-in the media, in classrooms, in Iowa and New Hampshire! But when was the last time anyone had a chance to learn something good and juicy about how the whole confusing process really works? Here is an opportunity not only to learn about the ever-elusive electoral college and how to recognize cockamamie campaign promises, but also to enjoy some of the funniest stories ever told about the birth of our great democracy (in other words, our fumbling founding fathers) and begin to understand how we got where we are now!
See How They Run makes learning about the election process enlightening, enriching, and never boring! For the home, for the classroom, for kids and adults, this is the book every reader (and future voter) must have to understand our country's most important decision-making process.
