Unlikely Candidate: Reflections on My Run for Congress

In 2010, Arthur Lieber ran for Congress in Missouris 2nd Congressional District when no other Democrat would.

In Unlikely Candidate, Lieber reveals the inside story of his unconventional campaign, shares the lessons he learned about contemporary electoral politics, and suggests ways to fix our broken political system.
