It’s a “for Dummies” Book
It didn’t get very deep in any subject, and the second half about what happens once your in office is generally true, but could never cover each set of circumstances for each potential position.

Disappointed. Would not recommend to any but complete novices (literally no exposure) to the political process. Some ridiculous statements detract from the occasional practical information.
