“An urgent and engaging look at how American politics have become the founding fathers’ worst nightmare” (The Daily Beast). America’s political system is dysfunctional. We know it, yet the problem seems intractable—after every election, voters discover yet again that political “leaders” are simply quarreling in a never-ending battle between the two warring tribes. As a former congressman, Mickey Edwards witnessed firsthand how important legislative battles can devolve into struggles not over principle but over party advantage. He offers graphic examples of how this problem has intensified and reveals how political battles have become nothing more than conflicts between party machines. In this critically important book, he identifies exactly how our political and governing systems reward intransigence, discourage compromise, and undermine our democracy—and describes exactly what must be done to banish the negative effects of partisan warfare from our political system and renew American democracy. “Overcoming tribalism and knee-jerk partisanship is the central challenge of our time. Mickey Edwards shows why and how in this fascinating book filled with sensible suggestions.” —Walter Isaacson, New York Times–bestselling author of Leonardo da Vinci “Many Americans, whether Democrats, Republicans, independent or otherwise, would welcome a few more like [Edwards] in office.” —The Boston Globe

One of the most important and controversial books in modern American politics, The Emerging Republican Majority (1969) explained how Richard Nixon won the White House in 1968—and why the Republicans would go on to dominate presidential politics for the next quarter century. Rightly or wrongly, the book has widely been seen as a blueprint for how Republicans, using the so-called Southern Strategy, could build a durable winning coalition in presidential elections. Certainly, Nixon's election marked the end of a "New Deal Democratic hegemony" and the beginning of a conservative realignment encompassing historically Democratic voters from the South and the Florida-to-California "Sun Belt," in the book’s enduring coinage. In accounting for that shift, Kevin Phillips showed how two decades and more of social and political changes had created enormous opportunities for a resurgent conservative Republican Party. For this new edition, Phillips has written a preface describing his view of the book, its reception, and how its analysis was borne out in subsequent elections. A work whose legacy and influence are still fiercely debated, The Emerging Republican Majority is essential reading for anyone interested in American politics or history.

Once the party of presidents, the GOP in recent elections has failed to pull together convincing national majorities. Republicans have lost four of the last six presidential races and lost the popular vote in five of the last six. In their lone victory, the party incumbent won—during wartime—by the slimmest of margins. In this fascinating and important book, Thomas Schaller examines national Republican politics since President Ronald Reagan left office in 1989. From Newt Gingrich’s ascent to Speaker of the House through the defeat of Mitt Romney in 2012, Schaller traces the Republican Party’s institutional transformation and its broad consequences, not only for Republicans but also for America. Gingrich’s “Contract with America” set in motion a vicious cycle, Schaller contends: as the GOP became more conservative, it became more Congress-centered, and as its congressional wing grew more powerful, the party grew more conservative. This dangerous loop, unless broken, may signal a future of increasing radicalization, dependency on a shrinking pool of voters, and less viability as a true national party. In a thought-provoking conclusion, the author discusses repercussions of the GOP decline, among them political polarization and the paralysis of the federal government.

From the Forward of the book:This book is much more than a simple listing of reasons. It is a comprehensive record that includes explanations and examples. It also contains more than 500 supporting quotes from a wide array of sources.This book explains how Trump is wreaking havoc on our country. Trump performs despicable acts daily but, in a more fundamental way, Trump is systematically undermining the core institutions of our republic, abandoning the values that have come to represent who we are as a nation, decreasing our power and reducing our prestige on the world stage and polarizing our country in ways never seen before. For those of you who decided long ago that you will not vote for Trump, this book supports your decision. It provides an overview of the breadth and depth of the damage Trump is inflicting on our nation. The book covers activities you probably were not aware of and details about his actions you may only vaguely recall. In addition to supporting quotes, the book provides insights into Trump's methods and motives that one may not discern from reading the daily, single-issue articles about Trump. This book is also a reservoir of facts that can be used to dispute Trump's claims.Why shouldn't life-long Republicans vote for Trump? This book provides four reasons. Republicans should not vote for Trump because Trump is not the person he appears to be, because he is transforming the Republic Party, because he continues to damage our country's position on the world stage and because he is undermining the core institutions that Republicans once admired and respected and is denigrating the American values that Republicans have long held dear.After reading this book, Republicans should ask themselves:Is the permanent damage Trump will inflict on our country in a second term worth the temporary benefit four more years of Trump may possibly bring?
