Daniel Klein, co-author, Plato & a Platypus Walk into a Bar, said, “Fools and Knaves is political satire of the highest order. Don’t miss it.”
Jim Johnson is a wealthy businessman, a “job creator” who pockets corporate board fees, cheats at golf, and trumpets shocking opinions. After he’s exposed for depreciating his wife on his tax return, professing belief in nine gods, and conspiring to peddle worthless health products, the media proclaim him the flavor of the month in the Presidential sweepstakes.
Johnson refuses to run, but he continues to broadcast his outlandish plans – replacing The Star Spangled Banner with Money (That’s What I Want), crippling terrorism by requiring terrorists to join unions, offering incentives for corporate greed, and creating two new political parties, the Fools and the Knaves. The media is baffled and appalled, but voters love Johnson and scream for him to enter the race.
“I will not run,” Johnson proclaims, and then, of course, he runs. In a four party race, (Republicans, Democrats, Knaves, and Fools) he leads the polls going into late October. If he can survive the Great Debate, Jim Johnson will be President of the United States.
Johnson’s campaign for president is the most historical–and hysterical–ever. The other candidates make Donlad Trump, Herman Cain, Michele Bachman, and Rick Santorum seem restrained, moderate, and responsible. The outcome is never in doubt: Somebody will be elected President. But who?
Fools And Knaves is political satire that rivals today’s news.

“I’m going to take this book into the voting booth with me. I had stopped laughing at politics until I read Fools and Knaves, which a friend recommended to me. I don’t know if I’ve ever read any political satire that’s as funny as this. I’m passing it on to all my friends.” – Amazon Reviewer, 5 Stars
“This guy has a witty and wicked perspective on the upcoming presidential campaigns…all filtered through the eye of a Huff Post comedy writer. At 99 cents, one of the best, most cost-efficient laugh generators around!” – Amazon Reviewer, 5 Stars
“Whatever your political persuasion you are probably pretty depressed about the current campaign season. Fools and Knaves is the tonic you need!” – Amazon Reviewer, 5 Stars
