The Great Liberal Death Wish: Four Ways the Political Establishment is Failing America (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781475065619)

This book argues that a leadership crisis in America is evident in the failure of the past three presidents and their Congresses to meet four challenges: the proliferation of nuclear weapons; out of control immigration; judicial activism; and the increasingly bizarre means by which we choose presidential candidates - politics as entertainment - in which self-nominated amateurs who look and sound good on television can reach the White House.

The Iranian crisis and the dangers of Vladimir Putin's return to the Russian presidency are explored within the context of nuclear proliferation. The book recommends term limits and age limits for federal judges and members of Congress, and sensible new rules for primary elections and nominating conventions, as well as reforms that will provide experienced, peer-reviewed candidates for president.

The Tea Party and other citizens' movements are responding to the ongoing crises, but the political class is not. This book examines the four crises and offers remedies based on the Constitution, traditional values, and common sense.
