Founding Father of the Twenty-First Century: The Presidential Memoir of Henderson West, Forty-Fifth President of the United States of America (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781532000614)

How does a highly successful business man who doesn't like anything about the American political system become president of the United Sates against his better judgement? In this alternate future history, Henderson Francis West, the forty-fifth president of the United States, looks back upon this significant time in his life.

For the first time, now after thirty years since taking the oath of office on January 20th, 2017, West recounts how he came to be president and reflects upon his accomplishments during his two terms (2017-2025). West credits his success in guiding America to retaking its leadership position in the modern world to his groundbreaking and unifying thinking, his nonpartisan approach, and his ability to modernize the institutions of the United States, most notably the now obsolete representative democratic system. Some of his accomplishments include the refocusing of the legal system, the purchase of Eastern Canada, the 7-1/2 year marriage license, and his now celebrated "New Freedom Initiative."

West shares how his inspiration, imagination, ideology, and tenacity led to a new and superlative attitude and perspective for Americans - one that ultimately gave birth to our modern era of "Engaged Democracy" as the guiding principle for effective government and American freedom. West, who is commonly known as the founding father of the twenty-first century, narrates the story of how his insight and vision changed America forever and has inspired the spirit and enthusiasm we now embrace at the mid-point of the century.
