Anti-Vaxx is not Party Specific

ive read Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail, but not the other one. ill have to add it to the reading list. will i become a libertarian though after i read it?

I don't think reading "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" is going to change you very much; except it could possibly make you a lot more cool.

"Fear and Loathing on the campaign Trail 1972" should be in my opinion required reading for every eighth grader taking civics class, along with the making of the president 1960.

Byco I really would like you to chime in on this; both awesome studies.

Seriously and on a side note, I myself am going to be driving to Vegas in about a week or so. I'm going to be meeting up with my cousin whose wife died almost about one year ago to the day; it was Super Bowl Sunday One year ago that she died. I flew into Metro Airport and stayed a couple days in Ann Arbor/Saline then drove up tomorrow for the funeral.

So I am trying to come up with the perfect mind altering drug for the drive to Vegas. I didn't take any mind altering drugs to drive from Ann Arbor to Merrill; that drive is about half the distance that Los Angeles is from Las Vegas.

EDIT-"I drove up tomorrow for the funeral…" ha ha I obviously am not fully awake and my perception of where I am and what is actually happening isn't quite complete. I often sleep in late, not unlike Putin. I sleep in the world's most comfortable and inviting bed.

I meant, I haven't read Theodore White's book. I was talking about the two political books you mentioned.

though it is true I haven't read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, but I have seen the movie about 6,000 times, including once watching most of it with the actual Hunter S. Thompson commentary track (MAN, he did not like the interviewer for that one).

hope you have a good drive to Vegas...

I'm going to be texting you and Vic and hungry and Mich Lady the entire drive.

You will blow through "fear" loathing in loss Vegas"-wow-that was voice recognition texting but I'm not going to change it; how auspicious.

It's a pretty short but brilliant read, and it will make you cooler I promise you.

Theodore H white first "the Making of the president" might be the most important contemporary presidential political study that has been written. If you actually chronicles the change from the decision-making to be left to the "smoke-filled back rooms" as to who was going to be the party's nominee to the modern primary/caucus system.
