Zustand: New.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - It is not our institutions that are broken - it is our politics. We have a Republic our Founding Fathers never intended, where unlimited campaign contributions and Congressional seniority keep Americans from having a real say in our government. Disunity and hyperpartisanship keep this system in place. It is time to change all that. When our elected leaders fail us, when corporations call the shots and make the laws, who is left to make it right No one but all of us. This book takes a hard look at today's politics - the profits and power to be made through keeping citizens uninformed and at each other's throats. It talks in real terms about the cost of disunity, the meaning of citizenship, and our civic duty - to each other and the nation. What the country needs now isn't change. It needs to re-discover the founding principles of the Republic. Its citizens need to take hold of the government by way of public opinion and voting, and make our government work as it was originally intended.
