[close] OFFICIAL BOOK TRAILER: It was a time of stalemate, gridlock, divisiveness, and polarization. The nation plunged into greater crisis and dysfunction as the list of things which weren't getting done grew longer. The survival of democracy and America itself were increasingly in doubt. In this political drama, a bright, young, idealistic, Green Party candidate, in his bid for the congressional seat of a very conservative district in Ohio, teams with a beautiful, fiery African-American intern to combat the slick deceptions and ruthless tactics of a sweet-talking right wing incumbent. This is the inspiring story of a small committed group of activists who either never knew or forgot the meaning of the word 'impossible'. Additionally, "An Unlikely Truth" offers a powerful alternative to politics-as-usual in the form of a take-no-prisoners electoral strategy.
