SNIP..."You Have the Power: How to Take Back Our Country and Restore Democracy in America
Howard Dean, Judith Warner, Geoffrey Kloske (Editor)

[Cha]

1. That should be interesting..a primer

on taking back our Country.

I won't be buying it right away but am looking forward to seeing how he writes this.

[Longhorn79]

2. I won't be buying it period

Dean isn't right for America

[Missy Vixen]

3. It's too bad you feel that way

>Dean isn't right for America<

I disagree. Dean helped the Democratic Party finally find its backbone. He has gone out of his way to be a team player and to speak out again and again for those who have been ignored.

I'm thrilled to buy his book.

Good on ya!

[dorktv]

14. a proven budget balencer who did not do what all the pundits

said he would and go independant after he lost his race? Got hundreds of thousands of people interested in making a difference? Pointed out what a lot of people are thinking but feared saying?

Where is he wrong for America?

[Cha]

11. WILL. OWN. BOOK.

MUST>>>>>HAVE>>>>>>SIGNED>>>>>>COPY>>>>>>>


Dean is the Model for liberal/progressive democrats,
hell this guy made me want to get involved deeply into politics when I saw him speak at the first democratic debates on cspan when he told me I HAVE THE POWER, (he looked straight at the camera when he said it, very powerful)

That speech brought tears to my eyes. Been outspoken and involved ever since...started DUing not long after when I heard rush, beck, and savage bash this site all in the same day.

[madfloridian]

12. I know what you mean.

He inspired my husband and I so much. We really got involved. Hubby refused to take down our Dean sign for months. I finally told him we just did not have room for the others for local candidates. He grudgingly took it down.

We still donate to DFA frequently, and to selected Dean Dozens. It is vital to work to get local candidates that we want in office.

13. thanks for the heads up

soo many books to read. so little time.

[JNelson6563]

16. Excellent news!

18. Sounds good to me. I love the pic.

:hi:

19. Also be on the look out for

"Come September" by Arundhati Roy. She's my favorite political writer.

http://www.lannan.org/_authors/roy/transcript.htm

If Dean can't inspire you, then try Roy. If she can't, there's no hope for you.

[madfloridian]

20. I will never forget this article by her.

http://www.commondreams.org/views03/0402-01.htm
Published on Tuesday, April 2, 2003 by the Guardian/UK
Mesopotamia. Babylon. The Tigris and Euphrates
How many children, in how many classrooms, over how many centuries, have hang-glided through the past, transported on the wings of these words? And now the bombs are falling, incinerating and humiliating that ancient civilization."

SNIP..."On March 21, the day after American and British troops began their illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq, an "embedded" CNN correspondent interviewed an American soldier. "I wanna get in there and get my nose dirty," Private AJ said. "I wanna take revenge for 9/11."

SNIP..."To be fair to the correspondent, even though he was "embedded" he did sort of weakly suggest that so far there was no real evidence that linked the Iraqi government to the September 11 attacks. Private AJ stuck his teenage tongue out all the way down to the end of his chin. "Yeah, well that stuff's way over my head," he said."

26. Confronting Empire is what

introduced me to her writing.

21. I wonder how different it will be from Trippi's book?

I would love to get the Doc's firsthand
take on the whole thing, but Trippi's
book was pretty detailed.

[madfloridian]

25. I don't think he will do much of that.

Trippi should remember he was the manager, and he should have done something when saw things were going wrong.

I think he spoke out of school on a lot of things myself. He, Maslin, and John Pettit, the photographer are making a lot of money off the Dean campaign.

Dean calls it kiss and tell, and I agree with him on that. Trippi is making a lot of money off his work with Dean.

There is one thing I know for sure, that no matter what books come out.....Dean will continue to be gracious and not criticize. This thing is not over, not by a long shot. There is a lot going on, and he is still one of the party leaders. He will continue to be. His meet-ups are larger than any others....they have built back up.

Trippi should have remembered something about loyalty. I don't think Dean's book dwells much on the campaign, from what I hear. It is more about tactics and ideas.
