4. Sez the author...
My name is Scott Goldstein. I am 19 years old, and was a very active member of the Dean campaign. I volunteered for the campaign in over 5 states, interned, and worked for Generation Dean from American University in Washington D.C. I spent last summer in Burlington, VT as an intern for Democracy for America.

My new book, The Tea is in the Harbor, discusses the fight for Democracy in America, the role of the Howard Dean Presidential Campaign, and the work still ahead to take back our democracy. Since the founding of our democracy the system has come to change a great deal. Our process is no longer owned by the people, but by special interests. In this new revolution, there must be a role for young people. If we really want to take back our Democracy we need to be in this fight for the long term. Like the first American patriots did in 1773, we need to throw tea into the harbor once again.

3. Another book and a couple of DVD movies.
This book is supposed to be quite good, by someone who worked on the campaign, Dana Dunnam.

Here is one movie out on DVD, done quite professionally, I hear. I have not ordered it as I am not ready to relive some of those moments.

This movie was shown at Democracy Fest in Texas last month.



One still in production:
The Grassroots Movie
(This is the guy from Dean TV and Dean Nation website)
http://www.thegrassrootsmovie.com/

There are some clips from it. Very down to earth and interesting.

I have seen some other stuff, but I did not keep track of it. Will see if I can locate if you wish.

5. Here's a book about all the campaigns that's gotten some good reviews.
Matt Taibbi was on the Daily Show last night talking about it:
