Summary
Winners and Losers is a timeless exploration of a subject relevant to today's youth that will inspire young readers to get involved. Jules Archer shares the accessible and entertaining history of elections and political parties in America. He explores topics such as: Are political parties in America really different, or are affiliations based mostly on emotion and history? What does party loyalty mean? Should you vote for the candidate or the party? Do you have the right to participate in elections when you are under eighteen? Even young readers can do their part in elections. Being informed is the first step in taking part in choosing the leaders of tomorrow. Voting is a fundamental American right, and this book gives young people the tools necessary to be active participants in the process
