[Corporations] For DC area folks - Election Night!

	NOW CAN WE TALK ABOUT IMPEACHMENT?

	HEAR JOHN NICHOLS AT POLITICS and PROSE in WASHINGTON

	FOR AN ELECTION NIGHT DISCUSSION ABOUT
	THE NEXT AMERICAN REVOLUTION

	Politicians and the media talked a lot about presidential 
accountability during the fall campaign, but very little about the tool 
the founders created to accomplish the task: Impeachment. With the 
campaign done, it is time to get serious about the real work of 
restoring the Republic. On election night, after the polls begin to 
close but before the votes are counted, take a break from the political 
platitudes and join a real American values discussion with Nation 
political writer John Nichols.

	NICHOLS is the author of THE GENIUS OF IMPEACHMENT: The Founders' Cure 
for Royalism, just out from The New Press.

	THE GENIUS OF IMPEACHMENT is being hailed as an powerful and eloquent 
political masterwork.

	Author STUDS TERKEL says: "Never within my nonagenarian memory has the 
case for impeachment of Bush and his equally crooked confederates been 
so clearly and fervently offered as John Nichols has done in this book. 
They are after all our public 'servants' who have rifled our savings, 
bled our young, and challenged our sanity. As Tom Paine said 200 years 
ago to another George, a royal tramp: 'Bugger off!' So should we say 
today. John Nichols has given us the history, the language and the 
arguments we will need to do so."

	Activist MEDEA BENJAMIN, co-founder of Global Exchange and Code Pink, 
says: "John Nichols has found the cure for the current crisis. It's in 
the powers given us by the founders to challenge the King George of the 
moment."

	Historian HOWARD ZINN says: "It's time we recognize that impeachment is 
not a radical, outlandish measure, but a constitutional procedure, 
historically grounded, and absolutely necessary when a president has 
committed 'high crimes and misdemeanors.' John Nichols makes the 
argument with clarity, power, and eloquence."

	GORE VIDAL says: "Of all the giant slayers now afoot in the great 
American desert, John Nichols' sword is the sharpest."
