Dear EmailNation Subscriber,

Most Nation readers don't have to be told that we need fresh, new
political perspectives now more than ever. In the new issue of The
Nation best-selling author Walter Mosely offers some ideas for
transforming the two-party system into something more equitable by
introducing smaller political groups based on special interests:
Consider the power of a black voting bloc led by young people, as an
example. http://lists.thenation.com/t?ctl=20DF:56B75

This magazine cover story is excerpted from Mosely's new book,
recently released by Nation Books. Click below to check out info on
