Politics in America today are nothing like they had been for the previous 200 years. This book answers the questions that nobody is asking. What led to this seismic shift? What is the basic prime mover maintaining this chasm of beliefs? What must be done to return to the days of compromise and cooperation?

The book is not a collection of biased opinions. Everything presented is based on irrefutable statistics, data, dates, and historical documents.

The material covered is essential for a voter to be fully informed.

The book has over 30 charts and tables that give the reader more than just unsupported statements. These charts cover issues such as happiness rankings, income equality rankings, union wages, global warming, CEO incomes, and gun murder rankings.

The book is divided into six parts.

In Part 1, the definitions of liberal and conservative provide a foundation for understanding the book's themes. The Great Political Split of 1987 is explored in depth, highlighting how this event created a significant divide in American politics.

Part 2 takes a historical perspective, examining how politics have evolved from ancient times to the present. The four quantum leaps in communication, such as the invention of the printing press and the internet, are discussed as pivotal moments that transformed governance and political engagement. These advancements allowed ideas to spread more rapidly and widely, fostering democratic ideals and challenging authoritarian regimes.

Part 3 delves into specific historical events that shaped American politics. The Civil War and the Revolutionary War are analyzed not just as conflicts but as crucial junctures that defined the nation's values and political landscape. The evolution of health care and women's suffrage is also covered, demonstrating how social progress has been driven by liberal ideologies despite conservative resistance.

Part 4 focuses on American Exceptionalism, examining how the U.S. differs from other countries in various aspects. The refusal to adopt the metric system, unique sports culture, distinct health care system, and controversial gun control policies are explored to understand why America stands apart and what implications this has for its citizens and its role on the global stage.

Part 5 contrasts liberal and conservative political policies. Issues such as global warming, election fraud, abortion rights, consumer protections, and campaign tactics are scrutinized to highlight the stark differences in approach and philosophy between the two ideologies.

Part 6 looks to the future, addressing challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Topics such as population growth, the rise of automation, and the potential for political reconciliation are explored.
