About the Book

In this snarky look at U.S. Presidential elections over the last half-century, the author tackles the question of whether voters are generally more negative than positive. That is, do voters vote against a candidate or party rather than for a candidate or party? Examining his own voting record in Presidential elections, the author concludes that he has more often been a negative rather than a positive voter, but he sees nothing wrong with that. Indeed, over a long period, negative voting may contribute to more stable government. Within this overall structure, the issues, personalities, and outcome of each election from 1964 to 2012 are reviewed, the historical setting is detailed, and the rise and general dominance of the conservative side of the political spectrum are argued. In addition, a sketch in the nature of a political cartoon seeks to capture the essence of each election. Between election chapters are essays. Some are fictional narratives, others are commentary of some sort. There is even a war story.
About the Author: David S. Holland identifies his occupation on his tax returns as "unknown author." He has also been a lawyer, consultant, federal government employee, and military officer. He has voted in most of the elections of his adult life, even the local ones. As an alumnus, he occasionally makes contributions to six institutions: The University of Virginia, The College of William & Mary, The George Washington University, George Mason University, Northern Virginia Community College, and Walsingham Academy. Illustrator Phil McKenney is a freelance cartoonist/illustrator specializing in book, magazine and newspaper work. He also does courtroom illustrations for television. A graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University with a major in Communication Arts, he lives in Montross, in Virginia's Northern Neck. His work can be found at Facebook/Phil McKenney Artworks, or www.philmckenney.com.
