Not a full review, but the author was entertaining enough. I didn't feel like I was going to fall asleep and I didn't feel like he was forcing opinions on me either. This book was actually pretty interesting and informational. I needed to read it for an essay I'm writing on wether Political Parties are good for America. This was really helpful!
