The 2000 Presidential election was decided by a margin of only 269 votes, but nearly 100 million eligible Americans did not cast a ballot. This year, don't sit on the sidelines - make your voice heard! Every Vote Counts: A Practical Guide to Choosing the Next President teaches you what you need to know to make an informed decision in the presidential election on November 2, 2004.

Find out what effect the media, political action committees, and campaign strategists play in getting a candidate to the White House and how you can get to the truth behind it all.
