    most of those look like book-of-the-month political books which are never cool, go with sinclair's "jungle"

    but props to your teacher for the neat selection, pretty politically charged

              Haha your teacher gives people the option of reading Michael Moore or Bill O'Reilly? What could you possibly learn from those two fucksticks?

                    Don't read any off them. Your AP Gov't teacher is only asking you to write a pussass 500 word essay. Thats basically a page. You don't need to read a whole fucking book to write a page. You can just read the summary in the back of the book and bullshit your way through.

                    You'll need to sharpen your bullshitting skills when you get into college anyway.

                        Go for "Stupid White Men: because Michael Moore is a stupid fuck that will entertain you with his controversy.

                        Why not enjoy the assignment?
