- Clip:
"Now many of our Christians have what I call the goo-goo syndrome. Good government. They want everybody to vote. I don't want everybody to vote. Elections are not won by a majority of people. They never have been from the beginning of our country and they are not now. As a matter of fact, our leverage in the elections quite candidly goes up as the voting populace goes down." Paul Weyrich.
- Guest: Joseph Farah, founder, editor and CEO of World Net Daily. What if they held a presidential election and no-one showed up? His new book, "None of the Above: Why 2008 is The Year to Cast the Ultimate Protest Vote". He goes against Obama and McCain. He said parties, candidates corrupt, don't vote. Thom says Instant Runoff Voting and take back your parties. He agreed. Obama empowering himself. Breaking news today, George Obama, his half brother who lives in poverty in Kenya. Cindy McCain's siblings being denied. Joseph asked Thom if he would help if he had a brother. Weyrich clip. It was not in the constitution who could vote in the early days. Should vote if receiving federal money?

From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
