I just finished reading his book "Thieves in High Places". I found it on clearance at the bookstore for about $3. I've got to give it to the guy for being an activist, fighting corruption and defending equality.

However, I think he's just a little too populist and misguided for me. I sent him an email saying that I was reading his book and asked if he supported Ron Paul. He responded with "I'm not supporting him, but he is the most interesting of the Republican candidates". Not even a thanks for reading his book, oh well.

Hightower tries much too hard to be "folksy", and his politics are silly and ignorant. Other than that, I'd probably play tennis with the guy.
