"If something isn't aesthetically pleasing or interesting, doesn't require skills I do not have, and makes a stupid point stupidly, I don't appreciate it as art. That doesn't make me a philistine. It makes me a non-rube."

The One with Rules for Patriots

172. Title & Author: Rules for Patriots: A Pocket Primer for Patriotic Americans by Matt B. Kibbe (64 pages)
Genre: Nonfiction—Politics
Completed: 25 December 2010

Summary & Review:
Matt Kibbe, president and CEO of FreedomWorks, offers his conservative alternative to Saul Alinsky’s infamous Rules for Radicals in this short guide to grassroots political organization. He covers how to organize a group, how to fundraise, and how to get your message out to the public.

I thought this book was an interesting and effective guidebook for citizens who want to become more involved in the local, state, and national political scene. Plus, it was free. So, I can’t really complain about that…

Rating: 7.0
