Dude, Where's My Country? by Michael Moore

As a writer, he's not quite in that class. In Bowling for Columbine, Moore showed that he is a film-maker of technical facility and emotional depth. He helpfully provides a copy of the federal tax form for refunds of $1 million or more, and promises his benefactor, George W, that he'll 'spend it all to get rid of you'. His Stupid White Men sold 600,000 in the UK and several million in the US, which, he dryly recounts in his new book, qualified him for Bush's infamous tax cut. Michael Moore has chosen the opposite route, and proved that it can work. Can the left communicate to a wide popular audience? Can it free itself of the prison of jargon? Can it reach out to the unconverted? New Labour and its co-thinkers in the Democratic party decided the only answer was to stop being on the left.

In this, the first shot fired over the bow of the 2004 Presidential election, Michael Moore aims to unseat the man who slithered into the White House on tracks built by the bloody hands of Enron and greased with the oil of his daddy. In case anyone in Washington hasn't noticed, Americans are fed up with the status quo. #1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Moore's incisive examination of the failures of the United State's political system, paired with thoughtful guidance on how to move forward.
