This book concisely depicts the necessity of all the citizens in this county to fulfill their civic duties. The book consists of letters written by two people who are concerned with the state of this country and their disappointment with the electoral system that has been hijacked by the two-party duopoly. Ralph Nader eloquently responds to the letters with words of hope and encouragement to not be easily defeated by the two corporate parties. He cites numerous cases of how it only takes a few concerned citizens to revolutionize the social and political structure of this country. He stresses the fact that 90% of one's civic duties is merely showing up to the polls which over a half of the population of this country fail to do. Again this book is very concise, but I recommend this for anyone who wants to break free from the political sedation that the two-party duopoly has injected throughout this county. It can be done and it only takes a few of you!

This book was a gift to my husband. It arrived in great shape and in good time. I would certainly use this seller again.

In this treatise, Mr. Nader answers letters sent him by young Americans, and does so in his usual interesting style. It's worth reading no matter what political bent you have. Civic Arousal Don't let the title throw you off!

I am a Nader voter and fan of CRASHING THE PARTY and THE GOOD FIGHT. This book is not worth even the reduced cover price. It is pointless babble in the form of letters from concerned (and uninformed) citizens, with Nader's preachy and unhelpful responses. Buy any other book from Nader and you will be happier.
