Anne Cook is an author and occasional blogger whose book, "Democrats in the Red Zone," garnered some attention over the course of the 2008 presidential campaign. The book's overarching theme was that Democrats needed to watch more football if they wanted to win more elections; but its content focused heavily on the dynamics of political perception -- specifically, issues related to race, gender, and religion.
                                                                           
 Cook is currently studying the history of American economics and investigating the definition of democracy and concepts such as "freedom." She continues to root for her beloved New England Patriots to triumph in this year's NFL season; but as the daughter of a Giants fan, she also knows that football fans across the nation need to do their best to get along, no matter the color of their jerseys. Anne Cook has appeared on The Advocates discussing her book, Democrats in the Red Zone, the 2008 Election Aftermath, and most recently Obama’s First Hundred Days!
