How about, "Taking the Country Back"! Actually, that may be a good title post-election victory!


I was just about to suggest "I Want My Country Back!", or something along those lines. Definitely a powerful piece of rhetoric.

That's pretty crafty of Dean to put out a book this Nov. I can't wait for him to get on the national media circuit. He's going to blow away the other Dem candidates once people hear him speak.


I was thinking "I Want My Country Back!" too, but then I was thinking as good as that is in speech, it almost comes off a little whiney as a book title. Too easy for the GOPers to target.

But that speech was so inspiring, I figured I'd go with SOMETHING from it. Hence, the line he closed with.

Ah, whatever - we'd all read it even if the title was "The Person Reading This Book is a Moron." May not sell too many copies that way, though...


I WANT MY COUNTRY BACK!

Nuff said, end of list.


He should go with "Stand up for America" or Shane's "Taking this country back". Alienated folks like us eat up incendiary phrases like "I want my country back," but as far as I can tell, the talk-show circuit prefers feel-good materials and tune out whenever something comes up that they perceive as unpleasantness.


I vote for Stand up for America.

It's time to take the word "America" back from the wingnuts.


"Stand Up For America", with red white and blue motif.


I would advise against using "Stand Up For America" that was george wallace's campaign slogan.

Id back "America Forward" im sick of our country reverting back to the 19th century.


The anti-civil union, anti-flatlander, anti-liberal campaign in Vermont goes by Take Back Vermont. I wonder how that'll impact Dean's choice of title. Myself, I'm a fan of We Can Do Better but don't know if it works for a title.


Maybe the whole "take back" and "stand up" rhetoric is part of a linguistics-theory based agenda to sap the meaning from your opponents' rhetoric by co-opting their language. (See also: "Compassionate Conservative" and "The era of big government is over".)

Or maybe those were just really poorly thought out campaign slogans...

Either way, thanks to demswin for reminding me about Wallace. Yikes.


Probably end up being something generic like Howard Dean - My Story.


BTW I can't believe his parents named his brother Jimmy Dean. I have to believe Jimmy Dean sausages and the country singer and maybe even James Dean were already famous by the time his brother was born.


The title should be "The Doctor is In...The Howard Dean Story".

Hey thats good! =)


Thank you...


Why not something like "prescription for change" or "How to treat America's problems?"


Perhaps "The Doctor Is In...Howard Dean's Prescription for America"?


Great suggestions, but how about "... and Justice for All"??



Great job, Vermonter -- even better than mine.
