About this ebook
Opinions Are Like Noses…Everyone Has One!
The United States of America is divided into two groups – those who know the truth, and those who don't, hence they are stupid.
But who determines what the truth is? Is it the Democrats, the Republicans, the Libertarians, or the Independents? On the Internet, you can find any article, website, or meme to support your opinion. And so can anyone else. So how can you possibly decide if you're right, or if the other guy is?
The bigger question is, "How did my friend, my neighbor, my family member, my co-worker, my acquaintance on Facebook, form this opinion? I should have a conversation with this person, and get to know them better."
How People Get Their Politics - Conversations with Americans About the Experiences that Shaped Their Political Beliefs does just that. Julie Samrick has talked with sixteen Americans to delve into their lives and discuss what happened in their childhoods that formed what they think about politics today.
Julie's goal is to bring the humanity back into politics. Our country should be united and accepting of one another and not so deeply divided.
