About this listen

If there is one thing that virtually everyone agrees with, it is that America has serious problems. Yet beyond that agreement is polarization, division, and even anger.

Preserving Democracy tries to reimagine issues differently. Rather than seeing Democracy as defeating the opposition with fifty percent plus one, the core of Democracy is listening to everyone and building the most extensive consensus possible. Everyone has a say. The way to get what you want is to convince people, not defeat them.

The book examines many issues troubling the country, yet it does so with historical analysis and a reference to the founding fathers rather than the partisanship and finger-pointing that commonly dominate our political discussions.

Some of the issues discussed are the growth of government and the debt, our understanding of the Constitution and the Supreme Court, the role of justice in the law, voting, the misuse of language, the media, information, and American values. It ends with a deep look into the housing crisis of 2007-9 and some brief comments on how we got to where we are now.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
