You can't be president

They say that every vote counts. But even if they’re right, what about who, and what, you’re voting for? If you’re not rich, not an Ivy Leaguer, not in lockstep with Democratic or Republican ideology (which are a lot closer together than either party wants you to think), would you ever even have a chance at being a major candidate? The fact is, the entire system is rigged to keep the “mock” in “democracy,” and MacArthur explains how this came to be—and what it means for the future of our country. Featuring case studies of candidates from Ned Lamont to Ralph Nader and sparing neither side of the political spectrum, it’s a devastating exposé of the entrenched elites.
