I arrived a little late to the Bernie Sanders party, but i'm glad i got to read his latest book. If our political landscape had more people with values and ethics like his, we indeed could have "A Future to Believe In". In the first 1/3 of the book Senator Sanders tells this story of his political life, up through the end of the primary. The last 2/3 of the book is a well researched and articulated manifesto to save our nation and our people. It is loaded with statistics and data, and explanations of how things political and governing work (actually, DON'T work). Lots of good information to put to use as we reaffirm our fight to reclaim our nation for our people - ALL our people. Great read that i highly recommend!
Ignorant almost incoherent ranting.
I'm a Bernie fan and have had this book for while. In my defense, I do primary read fiction and have to be in the mood to read a non-fiction book.
It's hard to categorize this book. Part autobiography, part handbook for running for public office, and part of it speaks to the issues. I think this would be a good book for someone wanting to know know more the "why" of supporting universal healthcare (for example). His ideas would work and he does do a good job of speaking to the issues. For this on the fence, this could sway you, and I recommend for furthering the knowledge base.
Overall, an excellent reinforcement of the issues. I'm tempted to ask some of my right-wing family members if they would have an interest in reading this (I have read things my mom has sent to me, so only fair, right?).
