Provocative and Insightful

This book does a great job at exposing some of the serious structural problems that threaten the future of democracy in the U.S. I highly recommend it for students and scholars of the American political system.

Well thought out and persuasive

I am a college student at Temple University and I had to read this book for my political science class. I thought this book was very well thought out and persuasive. In the book, Hudson explains eight reasons why America falls short of being a true democracy. I learned very much from this book and I suggest it to somebody who wants to learn about the United States' democratic system and how it could work better!
