One Vote from Dr. Ben Carson: A great book for election time

By Christopher Waldeck on October 28, 2014

Ben Carson has released a new book called  One Vote. This book can be found on ebook and paperback. It’s more of an informational guide  than a book. This informational guide is similar to his One Nation book that was released earlier except it focuses mostly on educating people regarding the importance of voting and taking the time to increase knowledge of those who are in office. The book is very inexpensive in paperback and costs around 5 dollars and I believe this is the same price for the ebook as well.

In this book, Dr. Carson provides website names and new apps that can train people to understand how different bodies of government work and ways for them to learn more about where they stand from an ideological perspective. This is essential right now because of the mid-term elections that are happening this November. It is crucial that people understand who they are voting for, who represents them now, and what the public officials have voted on versus what they actually said. This is a great way to focus on the substance of candidates are for people to really understand just what their representative stand for.

I have been a fan of Dr. Carson not just because of his beliefs, but because he is passionate about American values and really understands that empowering people means increasing their knowledge of those who run their government so that they can make informed decisions.

Carson is someone who truly embodied learning as a way that not only saved his life, but helped make him the man that he is today and it truly is a civic responsibility for people to keep themselves informed in order to make wise decisions regarding those who are controlling our government. The worst thing that people can do is make an uninformed decision when they vote and this book provides an ample amount of information in order for people to research and make the decisions themselves rather than just being goaded by an ad or directed to a media source that might be biased.

It is crucial to stay informed especially during this election season and I hope people make an attempt to check out this book and really learn about who is representing them. Remember you have One Vote!
