From the supplier: Paul Thibault's bid for a seat on the Board of Commissioners of Lancaster County, PA, was surprising since he failed to win the endorsement of local Republican Party leaders. However, despite the lack of support from the party, Thibault managed to score a stunning upset by defeating a Republican incumbent in the election. His success can be attributed to several factors, notably his campaign staff's decision to urge voters to bullet vote, his opponents' reckless campaign style, and his use of advocacy mail.

Triumph Indeed
Hugh Callaghanwas convicted of the Birmingham pub bombings in 1975, along with 5 other men, and was sentenced to life imprisonment. He was also completely innocent of every charge brought against him. This is his story,from his upbringing in Belfast and later life in Birmingham to the nightthat changed his life forever. It tells about the fitup, the kangaroo courttrials, the police brutality, the life in prison, the refusal for manyyears by anyone bar a few people to believe in the innocence of theBirmingham Six. It is a damning indictment of a "justice" systemwhich would rather a quick result than the truth and does not care aboutthe people it destroys in the process. It is also a story of hope and ofhow the world can be changed when there are enough people doing it. Thisbook is a must read for anyone who cares about true justice. ... Read more
