All I Really Need To Know I Learned From Neal Boortz
This is my story of how listening to radio disc jockey Neal Boortz changed me from a mindless liberal to an informed, enlightened conservative, and the challenges I met along the way. Being a black man living in the south made my transition particularly interesting and strenuous. This book details my mission of educating the "dumb masses" as well as the backlash I received and continue to receive from the black community....

At one time, Chuck Panici was an important person in suburbs directly south of Chicago. As mayor of the City of Chicago Heights, he entertained the likes of Ronald Reagan, George Bush, and former Illinois Governor Jim Thompson . He even became known by the monikor "the boss of Southern Cook County." In 1993, all that came tumbling down. He was convicted of a number of corruption related charges including RICO charges. The trial appeared to be another textbook case of a powerful politician letting that power go to their head and eventually to corruption. This trial also had the presence of Organized Crime and Panici was convicted on all counts. For nearly two decades, the final word on this trial seemed to be the verdict. That is until now. In a thorough examination of the trial, this b...

Shhh. Don't tell the government, but this is an essay that liberals and progressives wouldn't want you to read. Jack Gunthridge explains why the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution are still important today to all of its citizens. True hope comes from the freedoms granted to us in the founding of this country through our historical documents and the freedoms they grant us. Hope does not come from somebody that occupies the White House. Jack Gunthridge is fully aware of how the left in this country will receive this essay. Acknowledging that all is fair in love and war, Jack is willing to use his status as a person diagnosed with autism in his fight against liberals and progressives. They can attack the right, Republicans, conservatives, members of the Tea Party, and Christian...

Occupy Wall Street, A Leftist, Anarchist Cult
Occupy Wall Street, a movement claiming to represent the 99% of people in the United States or the world, is nothing further from the truth. Its a leftist, anarchist cult that glorifies the homeless and despises those who work, have homes, drive cars, etc. Occupy, in the name of equality, would like for all to give up all they have to "return to nature"/pre industrial society....

RESISTANCE IN THE GULAG ARCHIPELAGO (1918-1956)
An estimated 70 million people may have died in Soviet gulags. Such raises many questions: Where is the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising of the Stalinist reign of terror? Where are the six hundred prisoners armed with stolen guns and grenades attacking the Nazi guards, literally blowing up the death houses at Treblinka, and fleeing into the nearby Polish forests? Where are the suicide missions? How could the Russian people have gone to their incarceration, torture, and slaughter like lambs? Was fear of government retaliation so pervasive in the Soviet mind that it negated any and all forms of resisting, dissenting, and protesting? Why did the Jews, despite their relative few in number and the lateness of the hour, arm themselves in rebellion, while the Soviets of this period appear as pacifists in t...

"High Rollers" is the fourth and final free eBook preview chapter from John Sides and Lynn Vavreck's groundbreaking Fall 2013 book, The Gamble: Choice and Chance in the 2012 Presidential Election. Picking up where the third chapter, "All In," left off, "High Rollers" continues the dramatic story of the 2012 campaign into the summer. As Barack Obama and Mitt Romney began to face off directly, the contest was now down to two well financed and seasoned campaigners--"high rollers" playing the game of presidential politics at the highest level and putting everything on the table. With the race close in the polls, Obama and Romney began to place big and sometimes risky bets to change the dynamics of the race and establish a substantial lead. In combative ads and speeches, Obama tried to depict R...

"All In" is the third free eBook preview chapter from John Sides and Lynn Vavreck's groundbreaking Fall 2013 book, The Gamble: Choice and Chance in the 2012 Presidential Election. Picking up where the second chapter, "Random, or Romney?" left off, "All In" continues the story of the 2012 Republican primary, up to the point when Mitt Romney clinched the nomination. Sides and Vavreck tell the gripping story of how Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich seemed to threaten Romney's chances, and why both challengers fizzled out. The authors examine elite endorsements, voters' attitudes, media coverage, advertising, fundraising, and the efforts of each campaign. In the end, they argue, Romney benefited from the sequence of state primaries and caucuses, while Santorum and Gingrich could not compete with...

2:46: Aftershocks: Stories from the Japan Earthquake
In just over a week, a group of unpaid professional and citizen journalists who met on Twitter created a book to raise money for Japanese Red Cross earthquake and tsunami relief efforts. In addition to essays, artwork and photographs submitted by people around the world, including people who endured the disaster and journalists who covered it, 2:46: Aftershocks: Stories from the Japan Earthquake contains a piece by Yoko Ono, and work created specifically for the book by authors William Gibson, Barry Eisler and Jake Adelstein. “The primary goal,” says the book's editor, a British resident of Japan, “is to record the moment, and in doing so raise money for the Japanese Red Cross Society to help the thousands of homeless, hungry and cold survivors of the earthquake and tsunami.

If Greece goes...: The impact of a Greek default on Europe and the world economy
The Financial Times, the global business newspaper, has led the field with its coverage of the eurozone crisis and Greece's political and financial chaos. As the chances of a Greek exit from the eurozone grow, the FT's specialist correspondents and authoritative columnists dissect the potentially devastating consequences for businesses and governments across Europe. Could a 'Grexit' spell the unravelling of the European Union? Should the world economy take cover? What would the impact be on Greece itself? Based on a series of articles published online and in print in May 2012, the Financial Times' first ebook includes a foreword by Lionel Barber, the FT editor, an updated introduction to possible scenarios in the months ahead and a new chapter on the options for Germany, Europe's paymaster...

Believe in America: Mitt Romney's Plan for Jobs and Economic Growth
Mitt Romney will rebuild the foundations of the American economy on the principles of free enterprise, hard work, and innovation. His plan emphasizes critical structural adjustments rather than short-term fixes. It seeks to reduce taxes, spending, regulation, and government programs. It seeks to increase trade, energy production, human capital, and labor flexibility. It relinquishes power to the states instead of claiming to have the solution to every problem. Any American living through this economic crisis will immediately recognize the severity of the break that Mitt Romney proposes from our current course. He is calling for a fundamental change in Washington's view of how economic growth and prosperity are achieved, how jobs are created, and how government can support these endeavors....

The Gamble: Random, or Romney?
"Random, or Romney?" is the second of a series of free eBook preview chapters from John Sides and Lynn Vavreck's groundbreaking Fall 2013 book, The Gamble: Choice and Chance in the 2012 Presidential Election. These eBook chapters are scheduled to be released between August and December 2012. Picking up where the first chapter, "The Hand You're Dealt," left off, "Random, or Romney?" provides incisive analysis of the Republican primary season up to the Iowa caucuses. During the fall of 2011 and early last winter, it seemed as if Republicans wanted to nominate anyone but Mitt Romney. One after another, Romney challengers shot to the lead only to collapse under the scrutiny of the media and voters. Sides and Vavreck argue that the rise and fall of other candidates was due less to any signific...
