For more than thirty
years, Douglas Schoen has been a mastermind political
strategist, toppling dictators, helping elect
Presidents, and working behind-the-scenes of the
Democratic Party. Now, in his new book THE
POWER OF THE VOTE: Electing Presidents, Overthrowing
Dictators, and Promoting Democracy Around the
World [HarperCollins; April 10, 2007; $25.95],
Schoen offers a never-before-seen glimpse inside
some of the country's most pivotal elections,
proving to America why he's one of the most successful
and innovative campaign strategists in the history
of the Democratic Party.
With the 2006 mid-term
elections behind us and the 2008 elections on
the horizon, THE POWER
OF THE VOTE lays out a game plan for the
Democrats, detailing the strategies and tactics
that will lead them back to the White House.
Schoen illustrates how
technology and politics have merged to change
the political process in America and abroad. His
technology strategies were critical to Bill
Clinton's successful reelection campaign
in 1996 and revolutionized party strategy when
he helped New York City Mayor Mike
Bloomberg get elected. In the book he demonstrates
how to utilize the latest technology to help candidates
win the hearts and minds of the public.
Widely
recognized as one of the co-inventors of overnight
polling, Schoen is a long-standing household
name in politics. He has been revolutionizing
the American voter polling process with his firm
Penn, Schoen, and Berland for his entire career,
and has helped steer numerous Democrats to public
office including Ed
Koch, Frank Lautenberg, John Corzine, and
Bill Clinton.
