Description
"Senator Paul Wellstone's compassionate agenda leads us from the farm fields and labor halls of Minnesota to the United States Senate, where, fighting for his progressive policy, he is frequently Republican Majority Leader Trent Lott's most vocal nemesis. Along the way, he argues passionately for citizen activism, proves why all politics is personal, and explains why those with the deepest commitment to their beliefs will triumph.". "In The Conscience of a Liberal, Wellstone takes us on an unforgettable journey - in the battered green school bus he used to campaign door-to-door - into the heart of his grassroots senatorial campaign. Through house meetings, local endorsements, and "cafe politics" (where he sat and talked with average citizens about the issues that were most important to them), his folksy and populist message truly brought politics back to the people."--BOOK JACKET.
