Mike's Election Guide

0141039817

Democracy. It's easily the best system in the world, ever. Which is why so amny countries are desperate to have it enforced on them by soldiers!

Michael Moore is back to give you the low-down on the ins and outs of free elections, such as:

* Why should I vote? It only encourages them!
* Can my vote be bought? (And what's the starting price?)
* The candidates seem to think I'm stupid. Should I just go along to keep them happy?
* Democrats: do they drink from a sippy cup and sleep with the light on?
* Republicans: are they gay?
* And the most pressing question of all - who would Jesus vote for?

Plus: the ten things every new President needs to know!

If you thought voting was just a load of ballots, this is the no-holds-barred truth about democracy. Enfranchisement has never been so exciting. . .
