Inhaltsangabe

In 2009, Republican Nevada state legislator Sharron Angle declared her candidacy against Democrat United States Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid - one of the most powerful men in the nation. Thus began a whirlwind year that would take Angle, a former teacher and housewife, from relative obscurity to becoming a leading voice in the surging TEA Party movement.

Reid and the political establishment spent millions of dollars telling voters about their version of ''Sharron Angle.'' In Right Angle, you'll meet the real Sharron Angle. . .in her own words. You'll meet the concerned mother who ran for the local school board to help change homeschooling laws. You'll follow Sharron during her run against her own party's big government establishment to win a seat in the Nevada Legislature and throughout her subsequent ? ghts to preserve the Constitution.
