[edit] Career
Fund joined The Wall Street Journal as a deputy editorial features editor. As of 2008, he is a member of the editorial board of The Wall Street Journal, and articles he has written have appeared in Esquire, Reader's Digest, Reason, The New Republic, and National Review.
Fund authored a book, Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy (Encounter Books, 2004, ISBN 1-59403-061-8) about the U.S. system, which he describes as "a haphazard, fraud-prone election system befitting an emerging Third World country rather than the world's leading democracy".
Earlier, Fund co-authored Cleaning House: America's Campaign for Term Limits (Regnery Gateway, 1992, ISBN 0-89526-516-8) with James Coyne. Some commentators claim that Rush Limbaugh's book, The Way Things Ought To Be, was ghostwritten by Fund.[1]
