À propos de cet audio
Termed a "political king-maker" by Newsweek, and "the Dan Rather of infotainment" by Vanity Fair, Jon Stewart, along with the writers of The Daily Show, combines his riotous wit and razor-sharp insight in this hilarious book.
American-style democracy is the world's most beloved form of government, which explains why so many other nations are eager for us to impose it on them. But what is American democracy?
In America (The Audiobook), Jon Stewart and The Daily Show writing staff offer their insights into our unique system of government, dissecting its institutions, explaining its history and processes, and exploring the reasons why concepts like "one man, one vote", "government by the people", and "every vote counts" have become such popular urban myths.
Among the topics:

Ce que les critiques en disent
- Audie Award Finalist, Humor, 2005

- Grammy Award Winner, Best Comedy Album, 2005
"Cheeky, irreverent, and playfully ingenuous....This humorous sendup of American politics never fails to entertain, poke fun, and provoke thought." (Publishers Weekly)
"The devil's own comedic handiwork, a side-splitting guide to the abuses and absurdities built into our political processes and institutions....Sustained clever writing and a smart, durable premise....As with Mr. Stewart's priceless anchorman persona and his show's hawk-eyed editing for real news gaffes, there is enough truth here to make America almost as instructive as it is sly." (The New York Times)

Halariois delivery of historically accurate information
The performance of this book is unparalleled! Loaded with jokes and topical delivery of history! Funny takes and well found characterization of prominent Americans in a sort of where are they now format. Wish this book never ended. I had to register twice as I was laughing so hard I missed bits.

Funny, all star cast, fast read
Funny, obviously, smart and fast paced, the cast really is the selling point here. It’s like a trip back into the Daily Show golden age. Unfortunately the format is a bit disjointed compared to the graphics heavy textbook version, and the subject matter is a bit dated now. The themes hold up.
