Dear EmailNation Subscriber,
Check TheNation.com for the most incisive coverage of the economic meltdown and
what the presidential candidates are proposing to do about it.
Bailout Turmoil
William Greider | Bowing to public outrage, the House rejects the bailout and
Wall Street swoons. It's another deep shock to the system--but an invigorating
moment for democracy. http://www.thenation.com/doc/20081013/greider3
A Better Bailout
Joseph E. Stiglitz | The emerging compromise on the bailout is better than
Paulson's original proposal, but falls far short of what needs to be done.
Congress and the next president will have a lot more work to do.

We Need a New Deal
Katrina vanden Heuvel & Eric Schlosser | We should apply FDR's principles of
relief, reform and reconstruction to our current financial crisis.

Students Fight for Right to Vote
Cora Currier | Last week Congress held a hearing on safeguarding students'
right to vote, and troubling allegations surfaced about swing state voter
intimidation.
