Character Politics and Responsibility

What if someone in politics spoke with complete honesty, regardless of the political consequences? Congressman Brian Baird (D-WA) has done precisely that in his new book, Character, Politics and Responsibility: Restarting the Heart of the American Republic. Baird tackles issues most politicians would never touch and just in time for the November election, he confronts what candidates should be debating now. The choice for voters doesn’t have to be apathy or destructive rage. Character, Politics, and Responsibility, offers frank, constructive alternatives unrestrained by partisan politics or special interest pressure.
