I thought this was a venue to review a book, not to vent personal political opinions, which is what many have done. I dont care about your political beliefs, I just want to know you read the book and have an honest opinion of its contents. Anyway, Senator Miller relates the hijacking of the Democratic party from the likes of Presidents Truman and Kennedy, Scoop Jackson and other leading Democrats who were more interested in bettering the U.S. instead of chasing after minority votes with money and promises. He understands the necessity of defending our country from those who want to destroy us, even if preemptive strikes are necessary to attack "them" before they attack us. Im sure the mainstream, liberal press has ignored this book, their usual practice, but I found it enlightening and very interesting.
This book has to be one of the most important and informative books I have read in a very long time. This book should be read by EVERY voting American before going to the polls.
Zell Miller obviously longs for the good ole days when hooded nightriders roamed the Joe-jah countryside terrorizing blacks, corporations were allowed to spew as much filth into the water and air as they pleased, and rich scumbags ran the country from behind foot-thick walls (much like they do now actually, so what is the man bitching about?) Why this snake hasnt slithered over to the other side like the rest of the "Solid South" that turned from monolithically Democratic to monolithically Republican within ten years of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (COINCIDENCE, HUH?) is beyond me. People like Miller, Trent Lott, Tom DeLay, et. al. convince me that "winning" the Civil War was the greatest tragedy ever to befall this country.
