Description
In this clear-eyed guide, America’s political experts cut through the spin and expose the myths holding our democracy back.
Our political system is bogged down by convenient falsehoods, fueled by those who benefit from the chaos. These myths distort our view of government and prevent us from solving real problems, leaving many Americans feeling frustrated and hopeless.
In We Hold These "Truths", former congressional staffer turned George Washington University grad school professor Casey Burgat leads a diverse team of officials, academics, and experts from both sides of the aisle to expose the lies at the heart of our political dysfunction. They debunk talking points about term limits, lobbyists, money in politics, and more – offering real-world insights into how our government actually works.
Replacing myths with clarity and solutions, We Hold These "Truths" empowers us all to see past the distractions, understand the system, and demand the kind of government that will actually bring about positive change.
With chapters by:
Rep. Steve Israel • Alyssa Farah Griffin • Lindsay Chervinsky • Rep. Derek Kilmer • Quardricos Driskell • James Curry and Frances Lee • Adam Jentleson • Liliana Mason • Steve Vladeck • Matt Fuller
