商品簡介
Leahy, a radical conservative determined to stop what he sees as the country's rush toward socialism, explores the ideological roots of the Tea Party movement found in the principles of American constitutionalism and the libertarian notions of the English Civil War. From the Founding Fathers through FDR, Nixon, Bush, and Obama, the author describes how the principles underlying the US Constitution have been undermined from the country's earliest days to the present, accelerating the tendency to centralize and consolidate power at the expense of individual liberty. Leahy, founder of the Top Conservatives on Twitter, helped to form the Nationwide Tea Party Coalition. Broadside Books is an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers.
