Greenbeaux - Paperback

Russell Greenbeaux is a clown and he's running for president. His oddball campaign takes off when his message about political dysfunction inside the Beltway catches on. Along the way, his campaign encounters challenges from evil lobbyists, an angry reporter, an odd assortment of third party candidates with obscure agendas, covert infiltration from the major parties, Republicans waiting to be raptured, Democrats who invent mind control technology to win the culture war, and a murder mystery. Greenbeaux is similar to other political campaign novels - such as Primary Colors - that follow the rise of a political movement. Its twists and turns highlight the absurdity of a political landscape in which the clown who is running for president makes more sense than anyone else in the race.
