Interesting political idea

According to this article in the Philadelphia Inquirer, "Swann puts his message, policy ideas in a book: The man who is running for governor will give out some copies for free; The rest will cost at least $10," Pennsylvania's Republican gubernatorial candidate Lynn Swann has published a book laying out his political agenda. This is something that the Citizens Planning Coalition ought to do wrt building a better Washington, DC...

It was "controversial" at first, because the campaign is selling the book for $10, although you can download a copy of the book, for free (but you don't get that nice color cover).

Along the same lines, the Nashville Civic Design Center produced The Plan of Nashville: Avenues to a Great City, a coffee-table book comparable to a comprehensive land use plan, although I presume better illustrated. It costs $40. (See "More than 800 minds come together on a vision for downtown and its environs," and "Excerpts from The Plan of Nashville" both from the Nashville Tennessean newspaper.)
