520 1 $a"In The People's Machine, reporter Joe Mathews, who covered Schwarzenegger for the Los Angeles Times, tells the remarkable story of how direct democracy and a blockbuster style that is pure Hollywood have finally merged in California." "The People's Machine is a blockbuster of its own: an extraordinary, behind-the-scenes account - history and journalism - of how a movie star tried to bend the nation's largest state to his will. Watch as Schwarzenegger battles forces more relentless than any cinematic foe: the largest budget deficit in state history, cagey politicians, and unions who want to terminate the Terminator. As he does so, Schwarzenegger builds a new kind of political machine out of old materials - celebrity, money, consultants, and ballot measures designed to rally "the people" - and discovers the possibilities and perils of his kind of power. Schwarzenegger wins and loses, but even his defeats prove to be big."
520 8 $a"Mathews reports with unmatched access and whip-smart analysis on the blessings and curses of Schwarzenegger-style governance, and shows why the entire country should brace itself for blockbuster democracy."--BOOK JACKET.
