About This Item
NY: Basic Books, 1993. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hard cover in very good condition with deep purple boards, white spine cloth and gold gilt spine lettering. Text block clean and tight but for light pencil marks in margins, small marginalia, several light underlinings; former owner's name written at top of front fly leaf. Dust jacket in very good condition; not price clipped. * From the book, ""What was wrong with the 1992 Republican Convention was not the effort to link the name of God to secular political ends. What was wrong was the choice of secular ends to which the name of God was linked. Thus, Patrick Buchanan's world view might be objectionable to the secular liberal, but it should not be more objectionable because he offered a religious justification for it.""
Reviews
On Feb 23 2008, DennisHWestover said:
Carter developed an excellent treatise of the issues, and the political correctness climate of the day. He is surprisingly more conservative than I expected even though markedly reserved in some areas. I enjoyed his insights and opinions even though I do not totally agree with him. As a veteran of 23 years of law enforcement experience, an ordianed minister earning a Doctorate in Theology and Licensed Professional Christian Counselor, I appreciate his approach to the constitional challenges that present themselves to our society today. This has been a cery enjoyable learning process, one which has caused me to re-evaluate my own thinking and beliefs.
