About this listen
Where the Right Went Wrong chronicles how the Bush administration and Beltway conservatives have abandoned their principles, and how a tiny cabal hijacked U.S. foreign policy and may have ignited a "war of civilizations" with the Islamic world that will leave America mired down in Middle East wars for years to come.
At the same time, these Republicans have sacrificed the American worker on the altar of free trade and discarded the beliefs of Taft, Goldwater, and Reagan to become a party of big government that sells its soul to the highest bidder.

Story
Since Obama took office, conservative pundits have been mainstays on the best-seller list. And now, the best-selling author and political legend Pat Buchanan weighs in with a warning against not only the dangers that the country faces under Obama, but the risk of sliding into irrelevancy that the Republican party faces if it chooses to forget its core values. As he shows in this incisive book, liberal policy-making and unhindered globalization have eroded America’s economic strength.

Story
All but predicting the September 11 attacks, Pat Buchanan warns that America is inviting terrorist attacks and conflict by engaging in an interventionist foreign policy that is costly, dangerous, and does not serve our own interests. Anyone who has caught Pat Buchanan's television appearances, or heard his campaign rhetoric, will be surprised at his relatively evenhanded and thoughtful tone as he writes - often quite persuasively - in favor of the restoration of the political, military, and economic independence that largely drove U.S. foreign policy in the 19th century.

In American Marxism, Mark Levin explained how Marxist ideology has invaded our society and culture. In doing so, he exposed the institutions, scholars, and activists leading the revolution. Now, he picks up where he left off: to hold responsible the true malefactors steering our country down the wrong path. Insightful and hard-hitting as ever, Levin proves that since its establishment, the Democrat Party has set out to rewrite history and destroy the foundation of freedom in America.

After suffering stinging defeats in the 1960 presidential election against John F. Kennedy, and in the 1962 California gubernatorial election, Nixon's career was declared dead by Washington press and politicians alike. Yet on January 20, 1969, just six years after he had said his political life was over, Nixon would stand taking the oath of office as 37th President of the United States. How did Richard Nixon resurrect a ruined career and reunite a shattered and fractured Republican Party to capture the White House?

Story
You live in a dystopia. Every part of historical human existence in our world has been turned on its head. The world we live in is an inversion of what God created you to live in. All that is good is treated as though it were repugnant. All that is beautiful is treated as though it were repulsive. And the truth is forbidden while the most outrageous lies are exalted. This world did not become like this by accident or by inexorable forces of history. This world was engineered to be this way. It was designed to take the life your ancestors had and tear it apart.

Most Americans consider Abraham Lincoln to be the greatest president in history. His legend as the Great Emancipator has grown to mythic proportions as hundreds of books, a national holiday, and a monument in Washington, D.C., extol his heroism and martyrdom. But what if most everything you knew about Lincoln were false? What if, instead of an American hero who sought to free the slaves, Lincoln were in fact a calculating politician who waged the bloodiest war in American history in order to build an empire that rivaled Great Britain's?

But The Great Reset is not a work of fiction. It is a highly influential movement among the world’s elite to “reset” the global economy using banks, government programs, and environmental, social, and governance metrics.

Story
A major American intellectual makes the historical case that the reforms of the 1960s, reforms intended to make the nation more just and humane, instead left many Americans feeling alienated, despised, misled - and ready to put an adventurer in the White House. Christopher Caldwell has spent years studying the liberal uprising of the 1960s and its unforeseen consequences. Even the reforms that Americans love best have come with costs that are staggeringly high - in wealth, freedom, and social stability - and that have been spread unevenly among classes and generations.

In 2009, Mark R. Levin galvanized conservatives with his unforgettable manifesto Liberty and Tyranny, by providing a philosophical, historical, and practical framework for halting the liberal assault on Constitution-based values. That book was about standing at the precipice of progressivism’s threat to our freedom, and now, over a decade later, we’re fully over that precipice and paying the price. In American Marxism, Levin explains how the core elements of Marxist ideology are now pervasive in American society and culture.

Until the publication of this groundbreaking work, no one had so deftly diagnosed the harm that these broken bonds have wreaked on our physical and civic health, nor had anyone exalted their fundamental power in creating a society that is happy, healthy, and safe.

Does your local museum employ too many White women? It’s racist, too.

Today, however, the Arab world's sense of subjection to external powers carries vast consequences for both the region and Westerners who attempt to control it.

Story
In The Icarus Syndrome, Peter Beinart tells a tale as old as the Greeks—a story about the seductions of success. Beinart describes Washington on the eve of three wars—World War I, Vietnam, and Iraq—three moments when American leaders decided they could remake the world in their image. Each time, leading intellectuals declared that history was over, and the spread of democracy was inevitable. Each time, a president held the nation in the palm of his hand.

The ascension of Vladimir Putin - a former lieutenant colonel of the KGB - to the presidency of Russia in 1999 should have been a signal that the country was headed away from democracy. Yet in the intervening years - as America and the world's other leading powers have continued to appease him - Putin has grown into not only a dictator but a global threat. With his vast resources and nuclear weapons, Putin is at the center of a worldwide assault on political liberty.

Story
On a hot summer afternoon in 1928, the leaders of the world assembled in Paris to outlaw war. Within the year, the treaty signed that day, known as the Peace Pact, had been ratified by nearly every state in the world. War, for the first time in history, had become illegal the world over. But the promise of that summer day was fleeting. Within a decade of its signing, each state that had gathered in Paris to renounce war was at war. And in the century that followed, the Peace Pact was dismissed as an act of folly and an unmistakable failure.

Since Obama took office, conservative pundits have been mainstays on the best-seller list. And now, the best-selling author and political legend Pat Buchanan weighs in with a warning against not only the dangers that the country faces under Obama, but the risk of sliding into irrelevancy that the Republican party faces if it chooses to forget its core values. As he shows in this incisive book, liberal policy-making and unhindered globalization have eroded America’s economic strength.

But the populism and nationalism that are upending politics in America and Europe are a sign that after three generations, the postwar consensus is breaking down.

But what if most everything you knew about Lincoln were false? What if, instead of an American hero who sought to free the slaves, Lincoln were in fact a calculating politician who waged the bloodiest war in American history in order to build an empire that rivaled Great Britain's?

Surreal
I must say, it's truly a surreal experience reading a book in which Pat is slamming the right wing. I am not a fan of pat, or the right wing, but having said that I must say that he makes a very well documented, and well crafted, damning case against the war in Iraq. Perhaps coming from him, some dyed-in-the-wool conservatives might understand the quagmire we've bought into. It's unfortunate, or perhaps just amusing, that after slamming everything the administration has done since day 1, and everything they're planning to do, he still is "for bush" and "against kerry", citing his theory that Bush has been an unwitting victim of neo conservative factions in his administration. Yeah, he's still Pat.

Pat Buchanan as our historian
Mr Buchanan teaches us history, err maybe it's math, let's see 1+1= W is a willing dupe of the neocons and unwittingly allows his presidency to be hijacked (but shhh.. don't tell W cause he still doesn't know). Seriously, as a Carter, Mondale, Dukakis, Clinton voting liberal it is interesting to find myself with almost total agreement with Pat and what is wrong with our current foreign policy and the economic irresponsibility of our president and congress. Too bad Pat has to spoil it by delving into his social policy views. Strange bedfellows aside this book sure makes you think. I give it 5 stars.

Wow what a read!!
Mr. Buchanan hits the nail on the head. Our real problem is that we have career politicians that just worry about being reelected and holding on to their power, but most are not willing to fight for those they represent. They have no principles. They don't want to rock the boat so they just hold to the status quot. They also allow the Judicial Branch to decide law. They need to assert their power and stand up for the constitution. They just have no backbone. Highly recommended!!!!

A 4 year review of Bush...a must read
No matter if your are firmly of the Democratic or Republican field, this book is worth the listen. It defines "neocons" once and for all. He makes a plausible link between the trade deficit, unbalanced budget and Iraq. New lines are drawn between conservative, neoconservatives, liberals and the farther left outlining the political camps for 2008. And once and for all, it is a political book written by a scholar not a newscaster, comedian or reporter. It's Pat Buchanan so expect the angle to come from the right, but dont let that stop you. I gave 4/5 because it is abridged...

Never been a Pat fan but ....
Wow! I'm a non-white ex-"California Republican", and have always thought of Pat as a nut. However, it's amazing how much I agree with what he says.
It pretty much summarizes what most of Americans feel -- that our politicians have sold out our interests for 1) Political correctness, and 2) Big business. Political correctness has allowed non-Western immigrants to overrun our country, and it threatens to re-define what is American. Our new immigrants are predominantly from the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Latin America, and (as a woman) I find this frightening as those parts of the world are known to be the most chauvinistic parts of the world. Big Business has greased our politicians to support asylum of illegal aliens, large numbers of H1B visas, outsourcing, and turning a blind-eye towards the business practices of our trading partners, namely China, while have all of us little guys foot the bill.
I hope some of our politicians read/hear this before it's too late for our country.

When Pat Buchanan was mostly right!
Politically I think of myself as a moderate-Republican/conservative-Democrat. I have frequently admired Mr. Buchanan?s intelligence and generally been appalled by most of his ideas and political positions.
In the climate of our recent 2004 presidential election, Buchanan?s title intrigued me so I gave this book an audio-read. What has happened to me? I agree with a book by Pat Buchanan! (The first half, at least!)
I highly, most highly, recommend the first half of this book as an excellent geo-political-historical discussion of the West?s relationship with Islam. That first half also gives an amazing, frightening, and, I believe, accurate explanation of Ossama Bin Laden?s great plan. It also exposes and explains which country is his greatest accomplice, doing exactly the things that just might make his plan work. In the words of the great Pogo, ?The enemy is us!?
Love George Bush, hate George Bush, or just tolerate George Bush, read this book! We all need to get past that too-easy-to-use word ?evil?. We all need to stop seeing the world in terms of black and white -- them and us. Pat Buchanan (of all people) helps us to do that.
What about the second half of the book? Generally filled with the Pat Buchanan stuff I cannot agree with!

Makes A Believer Out Of Me
I remember the days before I ever read or listened to Pat Buchannan that I parroted all the lines I heard concerning his "racist" "neo-nazi" dogma. After listening to "Where The Right Went Wrong" twice, I find him compellingly believable. This guy has substance and integrity and I am coming to believe most of what he has to say. This book is timely, and whether one is left, right, or moderate; Pat Buchannan offers a lot worth thinking about. Yes, I've even bought the print edition and would like to hear him reading his other books. He clearly believes what he espouses. Its good to hear a man of conviction who is much more than just expedient "rhetoric.
